Mini Black and White Ink Valentines for grown ups

Flowers are always a good choice.

As of today, 10 (ten!) one-of-a-kind mini black ink floral illustrations are live in the shop- just in time to give and receive this Valentine’s Day! They’re kind of like the paper Valentine’s you’d swap in elementary school, but way cooler (and way less sticky haha.)
