Today's IC challenge took us to Urban Outfitters. They have a HUGE selection of items from which to find inspiration. I made my card as a "dream" or "fantasy" scene. It was fun to make and I think the sentiment is very true. Life w/o dreams (a mix of serious and fun) would be too ordinary and boring, don't you think? Hee! My cousin is 14 and just starting high school in August. She is quite the athlete and artist. I don't want her to forget to dream and in the process, continue to express herself artistically. I will see her today and I can't wait to hear what she thinks about this "whimsical" card that I made for her.

Gabby I find this card very touching. What heart you have for creating something like this to encourage your cousin to continue to dream, and create. To often as we grow up we put our dreams away. We forget to have God sized dreams. Thank you for sharing this card -- and your heart.
