She Hath Wings

 

Be like the bird who,
pausing in her flight awhile on boughs too slight,
feels them give way beneath her,
and yet sings,
knowing she hath wings.

~Victor Hugo

I stumbled on this quote the other day during my time of non-creativity and it got me thinking...
One should never let a little hiccup get in the way of something that you truly love doing.

Skipping Stones Design has another great sketch available to try! Visit the blog to see more fabulous inspiration from the guest designers and the regular fantastic and talented designers, as well as to read about the challenge and find out about the prize!

I turned to the current Color Splash challenge at The Play Date Cafe, in addition to the Skipping Stones Design Sketch for help with the design of my card. It uses the beautiful musical background stamp from Timeless Textures and a bird and sentiment from Heartsong 2,  to be released in April. The songbird was stamped and then colored in with colored pencils. It's all on one layer too, a bonus!
