Use Your Wings

 

 

 Hello Monday, my friends! And welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. Thank you for joining us for the  Mother's Day/Feminine  Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.

This week the challenge is: THINGS WITH WINGS

It's not surprising that I immediately thought of butterflies with this week's challenge. I am looking forward to their return. But, I also thought of dandelions which are popping up with their brilliant yellow heads, and I stated thinking about when they go to seed, and the fluffy light seeds take wing. Then, why not add in a dreaming person, because our dreams take wing also. Apparently, I was well into symbolism with this week's theme.

I began with overall stamped butterflies on the tag.  

On a second tag, I stamped my figure and word. Originally, I was going to layer part of this tag over my other one until I had an oops with some brown paint. 

I watercolored the figure in a contrasting color after I stamped a giant dandelion with her.
