Spotlight on Trendy Feathers


 Hi, its Cornelia here today, 
playing with trendy feathers from STAMPlorations!




And that's how this card came together:
My supplies:




I die cut the Poppy fluffy feather from white cardstock.





Inked up the feathers and stamped around the opening, masking off the top part



Stamped the sentiment onto the die cut, cut 5 more feathers and glued them together. Still needed more definition so I sponged around the edges.



Assembles the card after adding a silk ribbon to the feather and some sequins. 


 You like it? I do. Now in retrospect you may ask why I bothered cutting out the feather first? Well, because I originally had something else in mind, but then things took  it own course and that was what I ended up with.... I usually have a vague idea of what I'm going to do and then  I see where it takes me.


How do  you make your cards? More structured? I'd be interested to know. 
Much fun to combine stamping with die cutting. I am sure you all know this already.... 
Have a great day and thanks for visiting. If you want to go over to STAMPlorations to check out their fabulous stamps and stencils click

Hi Everyone, I made a bunch of Easter cards, after all its little more than one month and I need to send them out in time... You see, they are all similar - using both the die cut and the negative, that I cut from a die cut egg. The cute bunnies got their yearly appearance - they are from Impression Obsession. the egg is by Lifestyle Crafts. The sentiment is by Papertrey. And here are bigger photos from this set: Linking up with Creative with Stamps - Easter The Paper Players - die cutting Die Cut Divas - animals Happy Little Stampers - anything goes with dies

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it.
