Our hostess for Featured Stamper this week promised us a Gallery of mixed-media goodness and our FS, pixordia, more than delivered on this promise. She also has many beautiful cards with encouraging and inspiring quotes, which I love, and I especially love this quote and card: WCWO18 Your Wings Exist by pixordia at Splitcoaststampers
Like pixordia, I started with watercolor paper I stamped a single image instead of die cutting three but used her colors to watercolor mine with CP inks. I duplicated the look of her sentiment with a bit of a twist on the computer using American Typewriter and Bromello fonts. I finished by stamping the circles from VI instead of her enamel dots.
Congratulations SuZ on being selected Featured Stamper this week. Your Gallery is filled with so many wonderful creations and so much inspiration. I hope you enjoy all the cards you inspired this week. And, I hope everyone remembers to spread their wings and fly now and again. Such beautiful adventures lay ahead. TFL

What a lovely tribute to SuZ! Your background looks like soap bubbles that have popped, further enhancing the flying/floating message. Beautiful colors, and a fabulous case.

This is a beautiful card! I love the "messy" watercolor, it totally works here. I can see the tie back to the original card but you made it your own. Both cards are lovely. They look like they could be in a boxed set together, different yet similar. Nice job!

Hi Debbie: Thanks for your beautiful and inspiring words. This has been such a great experience for me having all you talented ladies making cards inspired by my gallery. Your butterfly is beautiful and I do love your special touches to make it your own. Long may we inspire one another. Heartfelt thanks.
