Victorian Cherub Valentine Card: Cupids Forging Hearts

The hearts are being worked on an anvil perched on a tree stump—a detail that somehow makes the whole industrial romance fantasy feel more grounded in actual blacksmith reality. Two partially clothed cherubs (one in a blue top and brown overalls, one in a pink skirt) are absolutely going to town on this stack of red hearts with a hammer and tongs because apparently the most romantic gesture is watching winged children perform industrial metalwork on your emotions. The cherub wielding the hammer has genuinely unhinged energy, rearing back for maximum cardiac destruction while his colleague steadies the hearts with tongs like a sous chef at the world's most romantic forge. Forget-me-nots scattered around the base add a cheerful little 'but also don't forget we did this to you' energy to the whole tableau. The 'To my Valentine' script floating overhead is the most threatening thing on the card, and the card contains children hitting hearts with a mallet.
