Seduction...

Pursuit and seduction are the essence...

Seduction...

necklace and earrings in sulty red, are new for Valentine's Day!

I love the elongated 'wild heart' shape, new from Swarovski, and the beautiful irregular faceting on these gorgeous crystals. Oxidized sterling silver adds depth and drama!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Love to a Stranger

Love to a Stranger Treasury Challenge

Join the challenge...between Feb.12 and 14, nab a treasury and call it 'Love to a Stranger'. All 16 squares should be shops you've never included in a treasury (they don't have to be brand new shops - just new to you). PipingHotPapers inspired this idea last year and it's ON again! See what new shops you can discover and pass it on...here's mine!

I love you more than cake...

'You can't have your cake and eat it too."

~Proverbs

....well, I ask you then, what is the point of cake??? I was browsing Etsy this morning and stumbled upon this card! It reminded me of my eight year old niece, Sophie, who I love more than cake - although I'm pretty sure SHE would pick the cake!. We share a habit of scraping off any frosting first, revealing the luscious moist cake underneath (and offering the cast off frosting to her waiting brothers) - delicious!

Anyway... I decided to dig a little deeper in my search and found these delightful cake related items - clearly, Sophie and I are not the only ones who want to have their cake and to eat it too ~ Enjoy!
