Stella!



No, not that Stella!

I originally carved Stella for a postal ring. She's just a piece of clip art that I received from the weekly Dover Sampler email (it's from the publishers of all the Dover books-things like clip art, textures, etc. Every week they send out a free email that has samplers from their various publications. There's a lot of good material for stamps-like Stella!). I carved her in about an hour and a half, which just seems amazing when I look at all those little stars. She's about 3.5 inches tall and about an inch and a half wide. As a postal, she was almost lost twice and now that she's safely home, I don't think I'll ever plant her in the wild since I love the stamp too much. That seems a little silly, since it's just a piece of rubber, but I would be heartbroken if she went missing.

The "Stella" LTC is black paper with gold glitter, gold paper and then Stella stamped in black.

I, too, would be heartbroken if she went missing. She is beautiful and I am so happy to have seen the PLB and the LTC. :o)
