with brave wings she flies...

Hey there!!  I'm popping in with a quick post of a card that I made for a few challenges:  CAS(E) this Sketch, Color Throwdown and Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge.   I love the CTD color combo and CTS layout  and really wanted to play along with both challenges.  I got the February My Monthly Hero kit and had not made one thing with it... so sad, I know!  So I pulled it out and used two feather images from the kit along with a sentiment from one of the add-on stamp sets.   I started my card by cutting down a piece of kraft cardstock and then splattering it with some white acrylic paint mixed with water.  I was rather pleased with myself that I actually got the splatters where I wanted them!!  Then I stamped the two feathers in pink, grey and kraft inks and cut them out with the matching dies.  When the panel had dried I arranged my feathers and decided that the largest kraft feather was not needed.   I adhered all the feathers and then made my sentiment strip by embossing the sentiment in white on black cardstock.  The strip was adhered and then I added the twine embellishment and some gray and pink sequins.



Hope you have a wonderful day!

Supplies:  Cardstock:  SU! Crumb Cake and PTI Rustic white; Stamps and dies:  Hero Arts; Inks:  Stampin Up! Powder Pink, Smoky Slate and Crumb Cake; white acrylic paint; Recollections twine; Sequins:  Ellen Hutson gray and Pretty Pink Posh pink
