In the 19th century, Valentine cards were more popular than Christmas cards, and they took every possible form. Cards were adorned with lace, fabric, ribbon, feathers, spun glass, mirrors, honeycomb paper, dried flowers and seeds, hair, and practically anything that could be glued. We've taken a page from that book and created a book of our own. These exclusive new Valentine card designs based on beautiful and evocative vintage images that have survived for more than a century.
This is the second e-book of our series, "Cards with a Past." Each e-book is published in a convenient, high-quality PDF file format. You download it to your computer for reading or printing. The vintage images included are high-resolution, in pre-sized format, ready to print at a copy center or on your home ink-jet printer!
