Bead Embroidery Bookmark Kit "The formula of happiness"

“The formula of happiness” is a night scene with wolves and a dreamcatcher, set alongside a short saying about freedom.

What the picture shows

The front is flooded with blue-violet dusk: the muzzles of two wolves emerge from the mist, with a moon and a curl of cloud above them. A pale italic line across the middle says that the secret of happiness is freedom. At the foot hangs a dreamcatcher: a turquoise ring with a blue centre and three gold-and-blue feathers strung in long rows of beads. The reverse holds another wolf, three short quotations and two turquoise-green ornaments, with a second dreamcatcher ring in green tones below. The edge is beaded in blue, and a beaded tassel hangs from the bottom corner. The palette is cool: blue, lilac, turquoise and gold. The beads work the dreamcatchers, the ornaments and the border — the wolves, the moon and the sky stay as printing on the canvas.
