I took this challenge two ways... I was inspired by a photograph of the most beautiful rooster on the back page of last month's Country Living magazine, from which I decided on a color scheme to match his incredibly gorgeous feathers. And, then, I added feathers for the focal point. This was fun!
The sun went behind the clouds just as I finished this card, so it's nearly impossible to see the glitter accents - first on thesquare panel behind the feathers, and then accenting part of the outline of the turquoise feather itself. Oh well, I promise you it's there and was quite noticeable in the sunshine! (Here's hoping the recipient gets it on a sunny day! Hehe)
Thanks for looking! I hope you'll join all the fun in this year's Falliday Fest, too - the SCS team is doing an awesome job to make this fun!!!
Blessings,

Awesome. Love the feathers and the wood-grain embossing. Terrific colors. It is difficult to get the sparkle of glitter in the photo. I'm sure the recipient will see it. Wonderful job with the sketch portrait style. Thanks for playing in the Sketch Challenge. TFS
