Happy weekend! I'm popping in with a card for two of my favorite challenges: Freshly Made Sketches and Color Throwdown. I always seem to combine the two challenges together, too! Back in December I was able to make a small order with Concord & 9th thanks to a discount code they sent me (thanks C9!) and I purchased the Feathered stamp and die set. The set has multiple feather images and I used several to create my feather. I first stamped the largest image using Catherine Pooler Grass Skirt ink. I then heat set the image to make sure that embossing powder would not stick to it. I then lined up three additional images, stamped then with VersaMark watermark ink and heat set using WOW! gold embossing powder. The feature was then die cut with the matching die. I die cut two feathers from kraft cardstock using the stand a lone feather die and adhered the three feathers together. I cut two lengths of dark green and gold bakers twine and then tied a knot in the center. The ends were tied in knots, as well, trimmed down and adhered to the feathers. A rectangle of white cardstock was die cut and adhered to a kraft cardstock base using foam dimensionals. The feathers were adhered and then I added the sentiment that I heat embossed on green cardstock using the same WOW! embossing powder.

Yummy feather card, Rosemary! Just love the neutral ones behind the colorful one!!
I had not seen these feathers before, but you showed us how to use them with perfection. Such a great card, Rosemary
How gorgeous, Rosemary! Those feathers look amazing with the two craft ones bringing the focus to the front green and gold one! I think, just like you, that those two challenges pair so well together and your card is the proof!
