Great Start to the New Year......Valentines and My upcoming Show!~

Okay,,,,so a couple of days ago, I posted the Start of some Valentines.....Sheet Music and Crepe Paper ruffles that I Sewed together on my machine......They were Great fun to make! Here are a Few of the embellished Results. The one Below?,,,,,I call my "Iowa Heart" because I used some of the brocade wallpaper I bought at Silver Bella to create it........

I rarely keep anything I craft for myself,,,,,but I may need to reproduce a similar piece for me,,,,,,,because it reminds me of my Wonderful Trip to Silver Bella,,,,,all the Wonderful Women I met,and visiting both Iowa AND Omaha~Too fun!

I made several  other neutral  "hearts" using various goodies......Too fun to make! (All of these will available at Joyworks,,,,or email or leave a comment if you want something similar!)

And, True Confessions? I love anything Victorian,,,,,,Lace/Pink/romantic/ Gold? Here's another embellished heart version.....I absolutely LOVE the colors and textures on this one......I'm a "throw back"what can I say,,,,,,I either lived in an earlier time,,,,,,,or just WISH I had........

A few more "Hearts",,,,,,,,,,Less Victorian and more "Kitchy" Too fun! (Geesh, If I could just ever PICK ONE genre and be done with it, my life And my creative life would be SO much easier,,,,,,,,but I love it  ALL! Ackkkkkkkk!)

Kitchy Hearts...........for the 50's and 60's lovin' Group! Grooovy! Too fun to work again, with these images from Cavellini...............

Truly? I could make Valentine images for days,,,,and well, I'll probably do a few more!
