Valentine Day Mardi Gras and Something White

I enjoyed working with the super duo beads on this design.  It's simple, but sometimes that just works :)

This next design was the first time doing Soutache, using ribbon with bead embroidery.  It's not as easy as it looks, but I like adding the extra texture.  Then again, I started off with this design and should have picked something a little easier.  I call this one my Mardi Gras necklace, because of the colors:

Now, this next Soutache I did after the above one.  Much easier and definitely more for the beginners.  Finished the below necklace just in time for Valentine's Day.  I call this one - Queen of Hearts
