This was was inspired by my daughter and her hard work in college.
She made straight A's and I couldn't be more proud of her.
Front sentiment: Reach for the stars!
Inside sentiment: You've always had the power my dear, you just had to learn it for yourself. - Glinda, Wizard of Oz
She has a kitty and once I saw this image, I knew exactly what to do with it for her.
My challenge was creating a nighttime scene to be fitting for stars, so I chose more of a twilight dusk sky. For me it worked while still keeping this an uplifting card.
This is shared with the Unity FWF projects today.
Supplies: Unity Stamp Co stamps from the Phyllis Harris Reach For The Stars set and I Am Woman. Also, watercolor paper and brushes, Sakura Koi watercolor paint and gems.
Have a lovely week.
LOVE this.. !! Beautifully colored.
