Forget me not
This card consists of seven different pieces tied together with pink ribbon. It is meant to hang, so each part of the card dangles below another. The top section is an image of a young lady in profile. The other sections are shaped like hearts. The centre heart shows a woman speaking to a man on horseback in a town square. The bottom heart pictures a cherub. The other hearts contain brief text.
