To my Valentine

Description

"To my Valentine" reads the elegant script adorning this charming Victorian die-cut, introducing an adorable winged cherub nestled within an ornate oval medallion mounted on a decorative arrow form. The cherub, rendered in soft peachy tones and dressed in a delicate yellow garment, gazes warmly from within a rich brown oval framed by intricate scrollwork. Decorative floral elements including blue forget-me-nots and pink flowers frame the composition. The overall shape of the card resembles Cupid's arrow, with feathered flights at the top and a pointed arrowhead at the bottom.
