Here is a non-competitive entry, my Latin Lovers brooch, made for a project in ‘98. I did not think anyone would wear it for long, so I made a little stand for it. Dennis.

[mizgeorge]

Dennis I love that!! I'd have worn it forever :)

[Kimkie]

How witty Dennis! Love them.

I'm going to be a little bit cheeky with this one, and hope it counts. As many of you know there has been an influx in the paranormal romance genre with the likes of twilight etc. This is my representation of the front cover of the twilight book, where a pair of hands hold a red apple to signify holding delicate life and love in your hands. The 'apple is actually a red marble. I'm hoping I can squeeze this in as paranormal romance

This is the front cover of the twilight book
