My youngest son graduated from the University of Calif, Irvine, in December and I made him this inspirational graduation card. I love this quote and I have used if often when I over think something and almost talk myself out of trying.
I printed out 3 of the digi image and colored the bg on one card. Then I sponged the heart with the cloud stencil on the second
copy. I cut that out and glued parts of it to the colored bg, leaving parts of it not glued down for some dimention. Finally, on the 3rd copy i colored and fussy cut the bird, branch, and flowers. The silver wing charms are threaded on wire with some beads and I added liquid pearls and stickles in various spots. I always like making these extra special cards for my son's. I included this in this month's CT0120 which called for hearts on your card. TFL, Francie

What a wonderful image to color for the colorer lovers! Your card is so rich in meaning, Francie. I love the stenciled heart full of clouds (to soar, right). Your son will cherish this reminder of your support.
Thank you for brining us this challenge. Off to ponder.
