Victorian Era from Sandie

Hi
Sandie has taken us into the Victorian era with a gorgeous Memory Canvas wall hanging, framed Victorian Flowers & a Victorian Tri-fold Tag Card.







Sandie says:      'The Victorian Era (1847 – 1901 with the reign of Queen Victoria) was a time in history when many new beginnings unfolded, and individuals described the era a time of ‘enlightenment’.  It was an era of change, and those who were in the middle class and upwards lived, surrounded in opulence.  Women created beautiful ornate embroideries, tapestries and wore beautiful gowns, their waists tiny, from the tight capture of a corset.

My creations were inspired by this era, rich and opulent, ornate and delicate.....'
