Challenge #253 - Valentines with a twist - no red

Welcome to another fun Magnolia Down Under Challenge!

We've been looking forward to this challenge, it is a lovely one - hint hint! haha.
This fortnight we're leading into the season of looooove, yep, Valentines Day is around the corner.  But we also have a twist .... more of that after a word from our wonderful sponsor:

Live and Love Crafts!
Winner chosen by our random.

If the words vintage and shabby chic makes your heart beat faster, you will find your haven at Live & Love Crafts! 

Live & Love Crafts is a UK based online store that ships WORLDWIDE. The store is owned and operated by Sandra Mathis, a crafter who is as passionate about the vintage style as she is about customer service and providing a good shopping experience. Live & Love Crafts prides itself on having a website that is easy to navigate with excellent product images. Orders are dispatched fast; usually on the same day received.

Live & Love Crafts stocks a wide range of products from well-loved vintage brands such as Maja Design, Pion Design, Magnolia, Wild Orchid Crafts, Kort & Godt, Prima, Melissa Frances, Maya Road, and the Tim Holtz/Ranger product lines.

The store has a vast selection of laces, ribbons and trims, an assortment of over 200 charms and metal decorations, as well as many other unique embellishments that you can't find elsewhere. To help you save on costs, the charms/metal decos can be purchased singularly and all trims and ribbons are sold by the yard/meter. If you’re looking for products that will inspire and a one stop paper & embellishment shop, look no further than Live & Love Crafts!

Our challenge this week is:
VALENTINES WITH A TWIST - NO RED

That's right everyone - no red! Just for a nice little change.
We can't wait to see what you come up with.
