HOw did I miss this in the Blog Hop yesterday??? I thought I went to everyone's blogs? This has such a gorgeous VINTAGE feel to it. I love the lace, the flowers and the sentiment in the book - in the heart. Beautifully done.
wow!! That doily is incredible, the colors truly beautiful and the vintage look amazing! I love this!
Dear Grace,
This is such a lovely--moving piece. I hope that makes sense. I can't think of the phrase. It "speaks to me" sounds funny, but your art does that to me. I just look at it, take in everything...and pay attention to my emotions.
This piece is especially wonderful to me. To me, the gold represents the cross, of course. And, look at the size of that heart...it reminds me of just how much love He has for all of us...but it hit me again, How much love He has for ME! That is truly a blessing. The "Thank You" sentiment seems like a thank you note I wrote to Him...and it is just endless, for I am always to be thankful to Him, it is so easy! Look at everything He has done for us!
I love the Vintage looking lace it is beautiful and I love pearls. To me in this case, it is the frosting on a cake, or maybe more appropriately, the lace table cloth at the feast. Beautiful.
OR, the heart could be a person's heart, laying it all at the cross. Giving all of my love to Him. Choosing to follow Him, Asking for Forgiveness. And, thanking Him for the amazing things He has done for us.
Thank you for sharing this with me.
He IS Able,
Traci S.
