Under His Wings

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

It's been a busy week but I finally got to the studio to clean it up

after classes and do some new creating. It felt good!

I thought that my friend Marcia's choice for the Color Hues colors would work great for a 

feather.  So I hunted for a background that would work and found one done 

with turquoise and blue Brushos.

I die cut one feather from the Brusho background and another from Neenah Solar White

and lightly sponged some turquoise ink on top.

I kept it simple with some subtle embossing that doesn't show in the photo and

an inspirational quote.  I seem to be needing a lot of thinking of you type cards lately.

Challenges:

Color Hues - Blue & Turquoise

Card Recipe

Stamps:  Walk by Faith (PTI)

Ink:   Warm Breeze (Versafine Clair), Tempting Turquoise (SU)

Paper:   Neenah Solar White, Brusho Background

Other:  Feather Die (Tattered Lace), Subtle EF

Enjoy!

A Feather for Happy Little Stampers

I'm a little late with this announcement.

Somehow the days got away from me.

So maybe it's not news to you.

But I'm excited to announce that

I am now on the

Happy Little Stampers Design Team

I'll be designing for the CAS team

and I couldn't be more excited!

If you haven't been to the

Happy Little Stampers

site, do go take a look.

There are 2 challenges each month (sketch and CAS).  

Next month a Christmas Card Challenge will be added.

The challenges last a month so there's lots of time to participate.

There are also lots of wonderful tutorials and a forum to discuss topics of interest at this site.

It's a free site with lots of information and inspiration.

This month's CAS challenge is

A friend recently gave me some Color Wash Sprays.

This challenge gave me the excuse to pull them out.

I've got to admit, I was a bit hesitant.

They are kind of messy, but not too bad.

I sprayed a scrap piece of watercolor paper.

(I didn't want to waste some good stuff if it didn't work out.)

I had this wonderful feather stamp that was a recent gift from a dear friend.

Thanks again, MH!

It seemed that it was a perfect fit for this sprayed paper.

What do you think?

 

Lots going on this week so I've gotta run.

Thanks for stopping by.

Enjoy!
