Our June challenge is Winged Whimsy
Let your creation soar by featuring wings! Think butterflies, birds, feathers or related sentiments. Celebrate the beauty of flight! Whether you draw inspiration from the graphic or fly a solo mission, let's see some winged beauties!
If you have come here from Maureen's blog, you are right on track. If you happened along the Hop, you can check out the Hop List below to get caught up.
My favorite winged image is a butterfly (no surprise there LOL). However, after digging through my stash, I could not find any papers to match the inspiration photo - doubly sad as I just love humming birds! MME's Lime Twist had a few of the colours, or variations thereof, so I went with it.
I'm still madly in love with this big butterfly image from Die Sidekicks, and the sentiment is from Blue Skies. Keeping your dreams alive is so important! Your heart is the perfect, safe haven for them to rest, until they can be pursued, so you can then soar and take flight into new chapters of your life.
