My Lovely Valentine.

A few weeks ago i was given the task by my Contemporary Craft group to design and make two Valentine cards. Well here they are all ready to send to my sweetheart !!! (Hubby)
I have posted these on Hungry Hippi for my monthly make. They are also on flickr.

This was my first attempt. I made the hearts out of paper then sewed them onto the postcard with red cotton then added the words. I found the buttons in my button box.


My second attempt was made out of fabric . The shape was built up of several layers then sewn with red cotton around the edges.
 The words have a very special meaning to me.

All hearts together.
I found it hard at first to make these cards. I wanted to put my feelings into my work of how i feel about LOVE and i think i have succeeded.
