Sending love

I love this wee stamp and I think it says everything about what home is - family and connection.
I smooshed the background with distress inks and sprayed with glimmer mists.  When dry I stamped and coloured with Reno pens.  Two odd diecut hearts in gold and white.  I tried a red heart but it took the eye away from the mailbox.

hearts are from stash

This is so sweet. And all that white space is luscious. My favorite part is those two stapled hearts. Fabulous.

I think for those of us who have lived along way from home - the letterbox is a true connection to home. Thanks for playing along at Addicted to CAS this time. x Carolyn
