Valentine Crown Class

I am just *in love* with my Valentine Crown! You must check out Jackie's blog to see all the variety on each person's crown. Each one came out so beautiful, but aside from my own, my second favorite is Lisa's crown with the sweet pig on it. (I'm not meaning to BRAG, but I'm so happy about how my crown turned out)

A special surprise was that one of my friends that I haven't seen in a long while was there to take the class too. Hope to see you again soon Terri!
Oh! and I won another one of Jackie's paper dolls. :)

As I've said before, there are so many fabulous classes coming up! I wish I could take them all, and I'm signing up for as many as I can. Wait until you see...

You are The Empress

Beauty, happiness, pleasure, success, luxury, dissipation.

The Empress is associated with Venus, the feminine planet, so it represents, beauty, charm, pleasure, luxury, and delight. You may be good at home decorating, art or anything to do with making things beautiful.

The Empress is a creator, be it creation of life, of romance, of art or business. While the Magician is the primal spark, the idea made real, and the High Priestess is the one who gives the idea a form, the Empress is the womb where it gestates and grows till it is ready to be born. This is why her symbol is Venus, goddess of beautiful things as well as love. Even so, the Empress is more Demeter, goddess of abundance, then sensual Venus. She is the giver of Earthly gifts, yet at the same time, she can, in anger withhold, as Demeter did when her daughter, Persephone, was kidnapped. In fury and grief, she kept the Earth barren till her child was returned to her.
