It's a grey and rainy day here on Anglesey, so an ideal time to craft! I hope the weather is kinder to you where ever you are.
I used three shades of Distress Oxide Inks, using Squeezed Lemonade, Blueprint Sketch and Wilted Violet. for the area where the feather would be. I then used Squeezed Lemonade through the Lavinia Stamps "Splendour" stencil for the background patter. Edging the card in the same yellow Ink.
I used Versafine Clair "Twilight" dark blue ink to stamp the feather by Lavinia Stamps called "Indian Flourish". I used sections of the same stamp to stamp the border. I stamped the sentiment, part of the Lavinia Stamps "Heartfelt Verse" stamp set and inked the edge of the card in "Twilight" dark blue ink too. To finish, I added detail to the feather using a gold coloured gel pen.
This is a really pretty feather Sam and with a pretty pattern within it, and a great idea to add the darker colour behind it and then the complementary yellow for the stencilled area, and bits of the feather look great as a border...a brilliant card. x
