Let Love Grow – by Heidi Blankenship

Once again, I am smitten — TOTALLY! But it couldn’t be helped. The focal image stamp that Heidi used today is one that got me from hello, as they say. The moment I saw that stamp it was love at first sight. It’s just SO pretty.  It’s in one of the NEW clear sets by JustRite called Hope and Love.  Heidi stamped that image onto watercolor paper, embossed it in white, then watercolored it using Tim Holtz Distress Inks. It is all placed atop a lovely sheet from a Prima pad and adorned with roses and silk to match the paper.  JUST lovely — take a look:

Love, love, love that image! And the roses and ribbon, oh my!

See the subtle newsprint? Heidi used a background stamp, stamped randomly, to achieve that look. Beautiful!
