"It is Spring again. The earth is like a child that knows poems by heart."
-- Rainer Maria Rilke
Spring is absolutely, positively my favorite time of year. Not only is the weather gorgeous, but the air itself seems to be drenched in sweet smelling, saturated color.
So the idea of creating in the theme of Spring for our latest blog hop with Jessica Sporn Designs, gets my head spinning in all kinds of whimsical directions. And! I had a cool idea I wanted to try out: what if I took Jessica's "Build-A-Villa" stamps from RubberMoon and enlarged them to create the focal point in a collage? And, if I did that, then wouldn't it be cool to see what's behind the windows and doors? Anyway, that's where my mind wandered, I hope you enjoy watching along:
For more Spring Fun, keep hopping! Check out what both Jessica Sporn and Denise Alloca did with the theme, and be sure to comment on all posts you visit. Jessica will be giving away her (beautiful, stunning, I must have this!) "Layered Peonies" stencil from Stencil Girl to one lucky winner.
All entries must be registered by next Monday, April 19th (6:00 pm, EST) and will be announced on Jessica's blog the following day.
Have fun, good luck and Happy, Happy Spring!

What a shimmery, magical place you created! I love the idea of enlarging the stamped images, and letting your beautiful background shine through the windows and doors. I kept wondering when the glitter and stars would come... and then, voila! Gorgeous work my friend.
