Real life has suddenly got very busy - nice work things, so it's all good - and then I've wanted (needed!) to spend most of my spare time at the craft table.
It's the start of a crazily busy week here at Words and Pictures (and I won't even be around for most of it - fingers crossed for Blogger managing the scheduled posts).
So we're starting with a quickie, a sneak peek in fact, which may allow me to claw back some visiting time soon.
Today I'm hoping to tempt you over to The Artistic Stamper to see a light, airy, watery little make, and I've even managed to keep things pretty short and sweet over there too!
It would be lovely if you had time to hop over for a closer look, and I'll hope to catch you around Craftyblogland in the next few days.
Long glinting dragonflies shot across the path, or hung tremulous with gauzy wings and gleaming bodies.

Gorgeous Alison!!
Just back from looking Alison and the dragonfly is such a magical looking creature especially when you espy him darting and diving over the surface of water. As soon as the sunlight catches his wings the colours dart all over the place and that is how you have captured him with your beautiful piece.

The fresh greens are a perfect hint of Spring Alison along with the dragonflies. And ACD reflects on them perfectly.

Good Morning Alison. Looks lovely and that is before I visit to see the full canvas. Take time to breathe in your busy week. Hugs Rita xxx
A very beautiful piece Alison. I do love to see dragonflies on artwork as it brings back a memory of seeing a real one very close-up years ago.
Sounds like you will be very busy but I hope you find time to relax as well.
Love Chrissie x

Oh my goodness!!! This is gorgeous! And seriously ... it takes a very talented crafter/artist to stamp around those corners :) Wow!! Love the new stencil and how the clear embossing helps create the water-in-sunlight effect. Beautiful! -- Mary Elizabeth
Such pretty blues and green. That dragonfly is so delicate, hovering there.
Beautiful! Chris xxx
