Hearts

Just a quick Saturday night post to introduce the February theme of the Fadengrafik Challenge: Valentine's Day. Feel free to add up to three of your love-themed paper embroidery projects until March 1. The more you add, the bigger your chance to win a little something ;)
For my DT insiration I decided to stitch a new pattern, so instead of using one of my favourite heart-motifs, I went for this swirly pendant/dreamcatcher-like arrangement. 
It's kept in shimmering silver and red colours, with a couple of gemstones for some more bling. The white space in the center of the card might be used to place a sentiment or dedication if necessary.
For the background, I decided to stick with the given colours, so I used a paper with snowflakes that was labeled as Christmas-themed, however with no visible sights of Christmas it might fit to any wintry occasion ;)

  12. Such a great and unique card. So blessed you joined our bi-weekly Challenge at Word Art Wednesday and hope you join us again for a new Challenge that started yesterday. Leaving you with the inspiration of God's Word in Isaiah 40:8 which tells us, "The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever."

    Have a blessed week,
