Tuesday Trigger: Squares to cherish

All of a sudden I saw it - the new stamps from Stella Rose that Sue had sent me, together with the Lace Frame from Hero Arts, that was going to be my inspiration for this challenge over at the  two-weekly Moxie Fab blog here.


Here is the inspiration picture, LOVE these colors together, with the touch of teal and pink and that shot of black and white.


... and there was one word that came to mind when I saw the inspiration picture... C o m f y.... which I stamped with alphabet stamps from Inkadinkado in a playful fashion. For some of the colors I layered two distress inks together. For example, the pinky color was achieved with Dusty Concord and Victorian Velvet together.


Here are the circle doily stamps I used. Thank you Sue, truly love the stamp set you sent.

I am feeling a little bit better as the days pass, I am not up to much and can't undertake anything other than a trip to the shops. I am still being overwhelmed with cards, messages and prayers and I thank God for His Presence in a new way in my heart, I truly believe that He is taking down barriers to show me how to Love more as that is what life is all about - Love!
