Do you know I have NEVER seen Hope Floats?? Rebecca's Hope You Can Cling To challenge today is inspired by that movie, so I might have to watch it today! I decided to use clouds for my floating element - I walk every morning and it's my favorite time of the day - watching our rare clouds float by in our big Texas sky. Makes me happy. And this Desmond Tutu quote is so perfect. For more about how I created this card live online with some stampy friends and more deets see this blog post.

Grins, I've never seen the film either. I have to admit that the last time I remember actually going to the cinema was to see Ratatouille!!
I LOVE the idea of floating clouds; your sky is quite Irish looking, but not that lovely warm sun-ripened wheatfield-coloured foreground. Fabulous sentiment, too.

I've seen the film, but can't remember a thing about it! Love all the watercoloring in this card. I'm off to the store to get some watercolor paper! You have inspired me.
