Bless Your Heart!

From my perspective
Valentine's Day is the day the world celebrates 
a holiday of LOVE (without going into the history)!


 It can be romantic love, love of friends, love of the disadvantaged and under privileged, love of saints
 or love of self - you just name it!




For me also it is about the love of creating hearts - all sorts!










The ones above are not new but I still love them!
And then there are button hearts
for the button lovers
like the one below!


A more recent heart I have created is this black velvet heart
on which I could display a few of some favorite
rhinestones etc. in my studio.






It's precious to me because I created it with some laces
and gifts




and other bits and bobs from dear blogging friends.







This is just another little way I can celebrate the love
of Valentine's Day.
Creating hearts is also a way we can say "thank you"
to show our gratitude to friends for acts of kindness
such as this one




which I created for Marie at Lost Bird Studio








This heart also includes some lacey embellishments




I received from Marie herself and Lynn of





(she's a bit lost in lace but I don't think she would mind
somehow!).

♥♥♥♥♥

Wishing you much joy in expressing Valentine's Love
in whatever is meaningful to you.

  26. Dearest Suzy, whenever I see one of your collage hearts (or any of your collages for the matter) I see how much love you put into each one of them. It is like each piece of lace, each button or embellishment is a special part of you all gathered into one stunning creation. I loved this Valentine post dear. You are so right...Valentine's Day is for all kinds of love!
    sending my own love to you today!
