Glow

Here's one of the newer images from a sheet of stamps by artist Meredith Dillman called Glow (Plate #202). She's a stunning image on a wonderful sheet of stamps. I love the shimmery wings she has and I added some gorgeous sparkle to them. Be sure to check out the artist's coloring so you can see how my coloring is a different touch.
I added a wonderful sentiment from Oliver Wendell Holmes that says "Where we love is home, home that our feet may leave but not our hearts." I added a huge heart shaped brad from Bazzill and used some yummy cardstock from SEI with gold embossing as my base. I just see this fairy looking out across some distance thinking about her home. As the saying says, even though we are not there, home is with us, in our hearts.
Here's a close up of this wonderful stamp. It's great both individually and with the whole sheet. Also, be sure to watch all the specials this week as Sweet Pea celebrates three years in business and drop by the DT blogs while each member has blog candy from Sweet Pea stamps to give away. My blog candy started on Wed the 25th, and you can still sign up by simply visiting my blog and leaving a comment on Wed's posting (Click here). Best of luck to win a wonderful prize this week as Sweet Pea is celebrating their 3rd year in business and don't forget their wonderful sale at the store!

Have a crafty day!

Cheers, Holley
