I'm drawing inspiration from this photo from Hand Stamped Sentiments. This is a fantastic photo because there are so many ways to interpret it. Hearts? Pink? Nature? I chose feathers, and a little pink!
HAND STAMPED SENTIMENTS PHOTO INSPIRATION CHALLENGE HSS176 |
Fine Feathers is a stamp set that I purchased right away, and it sits and looks pretty on my shelf most of the time. This was a great opportunity to ink it up! I stamped three feathers in three colors - Crisp Cantaloupe, Blushing Bride, and Soft Sky. Cut and arranged them on a tag. A little stamp layering with two new stamp sets (Petal Parade & Simply Celebrate) and some spritzing.
See the sequins? You'll be seeing a lot of them! They come in a huge roll, and I think they'll last a long, long time! I adhered them with Sticky Strip behind the (new SAB) Sweet Sorbet DSP. They add a nice glimmery touch to an otherwise pastel card, and I love the way they catch the eye when the light hits them.
So go on, make a spring - love - birdy - feather - whatever card! I'd love to see what you come up with using Hand Stamped Sentiment's photo challenge!
Have a blessed and creative day ~ Erika
