Valentine's Day



Happy Valentine's Day to you all!
My tag is on a Victorian theme once again. I am interested in Victorian
Valentine's cards, as they feature such beautiful images of nature combined with lace, which gives a soft, romantic feeling. This is what I aimed to create in my tag.


This is how it started! Gorgeous clip art from The Graphics Fairy gave me the wild rose wreath which was my starting point. I added the nightingale on top of a border made from vintage lace. This was topped with vintage embroidered braid and buttons from my stash. In the corners are some Valentine's hearts (clip art), finished off with some lilac ribbon.
