Growing in Unity day 2 -Every Breath

My second day for GROWING IN UNITY.
 I used  Phyllis Harris image EVERY BREATH

The card I made yesterday the image reminded me of my oldest daughter. This image however reminded me of you younger daughter. She loved finding dandelions to blow. When she was a senior in High School she wrote an essay about graduating and used imagery of dandelion seeds scattering in the wind to portray the way the students in her class were going to go their separate ways. It makes me smile to think about her writing this. I watercolored the image. I die cut the image and added glitter to the dandelion. I added brads, lace and dp that had French writing on it. The French writing also reminded me how she lived in a French house in college where they were only allowed to speak French when in the house. 

 Here is a close up, so you can see the glitter on the dandelion.
Make sure you comment on all my cards the week for the chance to win UNITY stamps. I hope you will come back tomorrow to see what I have created.
