Feather cards

I've been wanting to try Kylie's watercolor technique and finally took the plunge. I used a small almost square acrylic block and inked it with Pool Party right from the inkpad, spritzed with water and pressed onto some watercolor paper. I spritzed the paper some more and dried. Did the same thing with Crumb Cake ink. Stamped and die cut some feathers to "hang" over the colored block. Two of the feathers were stamped with Crumb Cake ink on Whisper White Scraps. The 3rd feather was stamped…

Hello! Popping in really quick today with a few last minute challenge cards! Had a fun and productive evening last night, and made a few to catch up on several I had been wanting to play along with! First up, one for one of the Papertrey Ink challenges - Use nothing but metallics and neutrals: I used a stamp set I have had for quite a while, and hasn't seen nearly enough use - Feather Finery, and the coordinating Feather Finery Dies. They were stamped on vellum and embossed in gold. I used…

My card for today's featured stamper, ponygirl2. Another great gallery to browse. I went with this card of hers: https://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/2850982?&cat=500&ppuser=392847 I kept the feather theme and changed the material of the feathers, added a piece of burlap, added an embossed layer and changed the sentiment. Congrats, ponygil2 for being this week's featured stamper. You have an awesome gallery. TFL

Hello again! I DID have time to play again today - and got a couple more cards done for my Stenciled Class homework - here is the first one: I was once again inspired by the amazing Debbie Hughes - her work never fails to make my breath catch just a little! I have been loving embossing paste for a while now - but was particularly fascinated by the way she misted her paper a bit with Heidi Swapp Color Shine, let that dry, then added her embossing paste over the top of that. I used Mint Green…

A turquoise and copper card using a woodgrain background, feathers and a bit of flourish. This card was actually made last December for a card exchange in a local stamping group I belong to, but I'm just now getting around to posting it. It has sort of a Southwest flavor to it with the copper and turquoise color scheme. The background is a Stampin' Up! stamp simply titled Woodgrain. It is stamped in metallic gold Color Box ink on a piece of 3 3/8" x 5" white cardstock.. This was matted on a…
