I was inspired by the sentiment in this Impression Obsession clear stamp set. The romance is adorable, and I love the way the words themselves, begin to drift downwards. So sweet!
I highlighted the sentiment by creating a whimsical, colorful, watercolor background. The soft watercolors are so fun. I love painting with them.
And speaking of love....the very best part of my week happened this past Friday.
My oldest son got married!
It was a beautiful ceremony that filled us all with tears of joy. I couldn't be happier!!
