This was inspired by this week's compendium of curiosities challenge to use distress stickles (I used scattered straw over vintage photo ink) and the current stampotique designs challenge to use wings. Here's the quotes on the wall:
"She went out on a limb, had it break off behind her, and discovered she could fly."
"She realized that she was missing a great deal by being sensible."
"She colored her thoughts with only the brightest hues."
"She took the leap and built her wings on the way down."
"She was an artist and her life was her canvas."
"She woke up one day and threw away all of her excuses."
All quotes from the book She by Kobi Yamada.
Have you done anything brave lately - artistically or otherwise?

Sometimes you don't realise you are being brave until after the event and you look back and think 'how did I do that?'. I love the quote about missing a great deal by being sensible, how true that is, we all need to act a little irresponsible (within reason!) at times. What is it that they say about acting your shoe size and not your age?!
I love the 'she woke up one day and threw away all her excuses'...that is a quote I should seriously think about!!
The Stampotique girls are just perfect for these pages.
great page, love the quotes - reminds me of a SARK saying 'you can dance through life and still be responsible'.
quite a few people think I'm brave in moving country and becoming self-employed - I just think it was the thing I needed to do.
What a fabulous page - your quotes have made me smile and nod this morning and I have noted down the book so I can keep an eye out for it. Thanks, Rinda
Love your brave girls with wings, Rinda. Fabulous pages! Thanks for joining us at SDC # 13.
Great use of all the girls and I love the quotes you used on your altered book. Thanks for playing with us at Stampotique Designer's Challenge!
I love Yamada's books, but I don't own She. I can't decide which quote I like the best. All of them would have been very helpful at one time or another. I'm typically not a particularly brave woman, nor have I had the need to be. I guess that could be a good thing.
oh just love this what wonderful quotes,and such a delightful page,hugs cheryl xxxxxxx
