A Victorian Nosegay Valentine Card

In Victorian times, communication between lovers was indirect and subtle. One way to express one's feelings to the object of one's affections was through the Language of Flowers, in which specific meanings were ascribed to different flowers. Thus, the combination of flowers in a bouquet (or nosegay) would act as an expression of one's deepest hopes and desires. This lovely nosegay was created by Claudia Karabaic Sargent to bring a message of Valentine bliss to your beloved. The meaning of each flower in the nosegay is translated on the back cover of the card. You may inscribe your own romantic message among the pretty floral decorations inside the card.
