Description
"To my Valentine, Queen of my Heart" adorns this charming Edwardian-era greeting card, which features a beautiful young woman with loose flowing hair framed by a decorative arrangement of playing cards and red hearts. The composition centers on a large, embossed crimson heart, surrounded by playing cards—including hearts and kings—arranged in a radiant pattern against a soft gray background. Decorative spiral medallions anchor the upper corners, while smaller hearts scatter throughout the design.
