Love your silver challenge today, Kim...I've been waiting for the perfect occasion to ink this fabulous image from Stampland. Isn't it beautiful?
For my silver, I used a Spica glitter pen in silver to color the stars falling from the angels' hand. Notice her bowl full of stars waiting to be released. I paired this lovely image with the Swahili quote,
"No one can travel by someone else's STAR."
I stamped it in onto white cardstock and then cut it apart to make it fit my design. To replace the word with an actual star, I glittered a brass charm with vintage glass glitter in Antique Silver.
I would love to know what you think...and thanks so very much for your comments!

What a fabulous image and proverb too. My eye was caught first by the stars, but I really like the foreground too.
I used to be able to sing Amazing Grace in Swahili, although I've forgotten all but the first line now.
