Valentine : the sweet approach....

Et voilà ! Here are my Valentine's cards which mainly talk of sweet things to be sent to the sweet people in your life

on the green strip of paper, I've written tu es ma douceur (you're my sweet)


Douceur again for these glittering candies


but my favorite is the lollipop Pour toi



The little hearts are more classical and claim Doux amour (sweet love) in pink and Amour passion (passion love) in red

the romantic series shows happy, dreamy women from Vogue covers in the 30s





the rose shocking series with paper ribbon whispers words of sweet love Plus je t'embrasse plus j'aime t'embrasser (the more I kiss you, the more I like kissing you), cynical love Amour toujours...je t'aime..moi non plus (love always, I love you..me neither), love hate Je te hais..je te hais tellement je crois que je vais en mourir (I hate you...I hate you so much...I think I could die)

but the most important thing is to love, isn't it ?

Wish you a happy start of the week !
I will put the cards on the etsy shop verrrry soon
in case you want some candies with pearls
and some ribbon with candies

Hola Lala,

Very nice cards..very Valentine! I like the simple elegant ones. I like the first card, the lollipop, and the two hearts. I have to make up my mind and pick one,hmmm..

When are you going to post them on your Etsy shop or how can I purchase one?

Gracias

Your valentine cards are very beautiful
Susana said…
Lala, qué bonitas! Cómo te compro una??
Susana said…
Gracias por tus mensajes Lala! Qué ilusión! Sí, ya vi en tu blog que habías hecho un wallpaper muy bonito con kanjis japoneses, muchos de ellos ya sabes que provienen del chino. Es una lengua muy hermosa pero de locura! Mi marido es medio chino (su mamá era china) pero no sabe el idioma, o sea que nos complementamos bien!

Ya veo que ha salido el sol en Granada! Aquí también... está todo muy bonito!
Elizabeth said…
So pretty, Lala.
What joy these will bring!
Laura Doyle said…

My maiden name is 'Hart' so I love hearts.

What beautiful,absolutely breathtaking and heartbreaking cards....and
specially these ,''Je te hais..je te hais tellement je crois que je vais en mourir'' (I hate you...I hate you so much...I think I could die)......They say so ,so much...
Your cards are telling a story all by themselves...:)
and for some reason this poem By Pablo Neruda comes to mind...:)

''I do not love you except because I love you;
I go from loving to not loving you,
From waiting to not waiting for you
My heart moves from cold to fire.

I love you only because it's you the one I love;
I hate you deeply, and hating you
Bend to you, and the measure of my changing love for you
Is that I do not see you but love you blindly.

Maybe January light will consume
My heart with its cruel
Ray, stealing my key to true calm.

In this part of the story I am the one who
Dies, the only one, and I will die of love because I love you,
Because I love you, Love, in fire and blood.''
Keep creating lala
Art thats out of the ordinary!:)
much love!

PS:-Do you see why I thought of your creativity?:)I was right!

These are exquisite, Lala. I love your ideas and the way you execute them. Beautiful.

Hi Lala,

Take your time, no rush for the cards.

I am glad that you liked the music of Yaser, he is an authentic one. I will try to find more of his music and others.

Wow..you know Om Kolthoum...that's wonderful..it's The Lady of the Arabic Singing. Youssef Chahine was another genius.
Indyeah said…
Lala,wanted to know how to purchase the cards?Please let me know will you?
keep smiling:)

Your art work is beautiful, as always. I especially love the cards using Vouge images. Most of all, I love your words, "but the most important thing is to love, isn't it?"
beauty comma said…
These are truly sweet =D I especially liked the Vogue covers cards. The 30's was a great decade fashionwise, don't you think?
Mélanie said…
