Beth, thanks for choosing {Teneale} as the FS74. I had not seen her work until today. What a lovely gallery! This is the card I cased. I love the simple clean lines Lovely river rock by {Teneale} at Splitcoaststampers.
I happened upon this saying recently and wanted to put it to ink. I stamped (ColorBox black) the words from MM rummage magnetic alpha and the DREAMS is a font called Playful Heart from Ma Vinci's. I stamped it with ColorBox lava black ink and embossed in clear. My wings are Technique Tuesday clear acrylic 'Skin Deep'. They were VersaMarked and embossed with Kaledioscope ep. I am so glad the shimmer shows. I fussy cut the inside of the wings and tore my papers to shadow the shape of wings. Instead of ribbon, I used my neighbor's Fiskar Threading Water Scallop punch at the bottom. I covered the holes so the scallop would be the star. My DP is Daisy D 3#12 and the card base is BG Perhaps group 'little red riding hood. The main image is on GP white cs. There are two velvet brads at the left corner and the word listen above the wings.
"Cut not the wing of your DREAMS for they are the heartbeat and the freedom of your s0uL". I adore this saying...how about you, what does it mean to you?
Enjoy your day Teneale. I am so glad I got to see your work, it is simply lovely!

Oh, Susan! Another artistic beauty! I just love this sentiment and how you've made it the focal point of your wonderful card! As always, the details are extraordinary - the torn paper shadowing your butterfly, the velvet brads - lovely!
