I couldn’t resist pairing the new Look Up Pup stamp set  with the classic Over the Rainbow stencil , and honestly… they were made for each other.

It’s a place that feels familiar, like somewhere you’ve sat before with someone you love, or somewhere you might return alone, carrying memories with you. The sentiment, “What is remembered, lives.”  from the Navigating Grief stamp set  is simple but powerful. It doesn’t try to fix the grief. It honors it. Symbolism in the Design
