Free To Fly

I recently participated in Wilna's Art Workshop at Two Peas in a Bucket. One of her challenges was to use paint on a layout, I chose watercolor because I love the soft look it creates. I thought it would be fun to do a layout about my recent PanPastel workshop at Donna Downey's studio. I found 12x12 watercolor paper at Scrappin' In the City in Knoxville and have decided I need this stuff in bulk - LOVE it!

I painted a simple frame as a backdrop for the photos, added a few leaves, branches, and used the gorgeous feather stamps from Cocoa Daisy. This layout is special to me because it represents this fabulous stage of my life, where I'm free to try, learn, and embrace new things. My challenge for you today is to try something new, push yourself out of your comfort zone, and see where it will lead you!
