Too early for a Valentine? (She got framed)

[xperimentl]

Guess I was ready to be done with Christmas, on with the New Year and upcoming holidays.  The design is from a vintage coloring page that I found online.  I ironed the accent fabric on with fusible web and stitched around in stem and backstitch.  

Still deciding whether to frame in the hoop or make something out of it, so I am open to suggestions!  Done in an 8" hoop, fabric is Kona cotton.  

Check out her giant jar of paste!

Thanks for looking.

Update:  Thanks for all of the great comments and suggestions on what I could do with this project.  I ended up purchasing a black architectural style frame and will keep her under glass for now, unfortunately my photo doesn't do it justice.  I may make some additional valentine accessories using the same fabrics to place around her on my mantel.

I LOVE the use of accent fabric! It's not something I've personally really seen done before and it gives it a really nice, different look. I like it a lot.

So well done!  All of the elements come together crisply, cleanly, simply--for an outstanding result!

I really like this!

I love the fabrics that you used. The red & white prints look great against the black stitching!

How big is the final piece?
