Valentine Card
File
Boxed Valentine Card (3-D) featuring two silver doves mounted to a heavily adorned middle section that includes fabric and sugar (glitter) details. The whole card is heavily decorated with silver lace and foilage with small coloured flower-cut outs applied on top. A small diamond-shaped paper cut-out bears the message "Constrant & true / Till death I'll prove / No one but you / shall share my love". The card is mounted to a board and on the back are the remenants of three other greeting cards which have been cut-off when cutting around the Valentine. The cards on the back are clearly 20th century, and one of them is a Christmas card.
