Kuva on siis "Phoenix" ja väritin sen ProMarkereilla. Kuviopaperi löytyi silppulaatikosta, kun lähdin kaivelemaan punaisen, oranssin ja keltaisen sävyjä, jotka sopisivat yhteen kuvan kanssa. Kerrostin kuvan ja kuviopaperin tummanpunaisella kartongilla. Lisukkeena on keltaista ja oranssia nauhaa, pari sulkaa, blingikukkia sekä siivellinen sydänkoriste. Kohotin kuvan pohjasta 1,5 mm kohotarrapaloilla.
Tuossa kuvassakin oleva feenix-lintu kuvaa mielestäni erinomaisesti uudistumista, jota sydämen äänen seuraaminen voi vaatia. Joskus muutos voi olla kivulias, mutta usein tuhkasta nousee entistä ehompana. Varmaan sen takia tämä ajatus oman sydämen äänen seuraamisesta tuli korttia tehdessäni mieleeni ja meinasin alun perin laittaa tämän tuohon kortin kanteen, mutta lopulta päädyin kuitenkin jättämään sen pois. Voi olla, että kirjoitan tekstin kuitenkin vielä joskus kortin sisäpuolelle...
Become the person you were meant to be,
light your inner fire and follow your heart's desire.

This card was once again inspired by a wonderful digital image - this time by Art by MiRan. The image is called "Phoenix" and it is the monthly Facebook Progressive Challenge image. I coloured the image with ProMarkers and layered with red carstock. The DP is from my scraps box - I found it when I was looking for some matching DP for my choice of colours. In addition some yellow and orange ribbons, feathers, bling flowers and a heart embellishment. I used 1,5mm 3D foam pads under the image for added dimension.
For me phoenix bird is a great symbol for following heart's desire and be renewed. It may require burning into ashes first, but if your desire to reach your dreams is great enough, you will rise again even through the hardships. Probably that's the reason why the following quote came to my mind when making this card - I think it is a perfect match with this image and card. I was planning to put this on the card too, but then I ended up leaving it out after all. However, I may add the text inside the card...
Become the person you were meant to be,
light your inner fire and follow your heart's desire.
