Thank you, Kitty for bringing us a gem to the Featured Stamper today (okay, sorry...I just couldn't resist!!!). It was a really great choice. Something for every style of creator, wouldn't you say? Hello Gem, so happy to read that it's your week in the SCS spotlight!
It was fun strolling through your gallery. I love your style...so many fun techniques, the shoe cards, 3-D cards, that wonderful braided card, the Blue Prom dress...and more. The hitch your Volks(wagon)touched my heart. The Emerson quote is such an encouraging word!
Of course, I changed mine to a fussy galaxy trip in a graffiti'ed Van~a~gon (Basic Grey 'B side' paper pieced). I die cut a scrap of Brusho play with the 'Pete' star spiral sprinkling them across the grey bg. The quote was inked on twinkled scrap and cut. I wanted mine to say THE stars, so I used my vintage Dynamo label maker to spell THE.
Loaded up on top of the van is &d. This will be mailed to him later this week. He's hitching himself to a whole BIG new dream and I think he'll smile when he opens this.
Gem...you are such an addition to our community! I hope you'll enjoy the gallery created in your honor. Keep on bringing us fresh ideas.
Thanks for the comments...they always bless me.

&d will love it I am sure. Those Volkswagen vans have always reminded me of my years of the 60s when people just took off in them to go find their dreams on adventures of exploring new horizons. I wish him well in his new big dream.

Susan, this is simply awesome! First, I love your 'graffiti'ed Van~a~gon' that seems to be soaring into the stars; second, love what you did to those stars that you 'sprinkled across the galaxy' (another thing that I want to watch you do!); third, love those pops of yellow - from the dymo label, to the van's top and the mat! &D (Andy?) will treasure this card for sure!
