Victorian Love Greeting Card with Doves, Red Heart & Flowers

The two birds are proportioned with suspiciously smug precision, each having seized one end of a blue ribbon and apparently engaged in a tug-of-war over a massive red heart — because when you think romance, you naturally think a territorial dispute between avians. Purple violets erupt from the heart's base like it's having some kind of floral cardiac event, while dainty forget-me-nots hover overhead in what can only be described as moral support. The whole tableau is framed in a pink gingham border that radiates 'your grandmother's tablecloth energy,' and someone — with a completely straight face — signed off on the text 'A Gift of Love' as if the birds weren't clearly winning.
