Peggy is our hostess this week, and she has selected a lovely combo for her challenge, "Crisp Coral Crumbs" (Crisp Cantaloupe, Calypso Coral, and Crumb Cake). The dessert option is Emboss Resist.
I must stop and give credit and huge thanks to LeeAnn Greff for the inspiration for my card. Her Founder's Circle Card is absolutely beautiful, and there is even a video on her site, with complete directions and dimensions for the layers. Thank you, LeeAnn!
This stamp set arrived at my house TODAY, and I couldn't wait to get it inky!
I used LeeAnn's card as my inspiration, but with this week's colors. I did vary the design a bit and used a different sentiment, as well. Another benefit to me of making this card is that I rediscovered SU's Iridescent Ice, which gave the feathers a beautiful sparkle.
This card is going to my niece. She has always been a special person to me, and she just got a huge promotion at work. I'm very proud of her and will write and tell her so!
Thanks for stopping by! Please join us and make a card for this week's Color Challenge!

This is beautiful. I was just asking where I buy goodies from if she could get me a feather stamp and die set. I love the look, and a great sentiment. tfs

I love the iridescent ice on the feathers! It is getting really freaky with us DT members when it comes to our thought processes.....
I am going to go back and add the little two feather bunch to my card, lol!

Beautiful card! I just love the sparkle on the feathers! The masking and blending frames your image so well and your fussy cut feathers are truly the icing on the cake!
