A good afternoon to you! I had another lazy morning, I’m starting to like them too much! LOL! Just hanging around talking and watching YouTube videos with Michael. Yesterday after work I came home and made my card for today. Michael got to me a little later than planned so we decided to go out and get salads from La Bottega and watch a movie. We watched The Holiday with Kate Winslet, Cameron Diaz, Jude Law and Jack Black, it’s one of my favorite movies and Michael had never seen it. He liked it too! Today we are going to go to street fair in Westbury and then who knows. I hope that your weekend is off to a good start!
The card that I made is for this week’s Pals Paper Arts sketch challenge…
This was another one that I put together in my little brain while I was at work! That card base is Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock. My background is a piece of Bermuda Bay with a piece of Vellum over the top that I embossed with the We R Memory Keepers Feathers Embossing Folder. Three strips of The Paper Cuts Blueprint Curious Metallic Card Stock are adhered to the card with Foam Tape. I stamped the three feathers from the Mama Elephant Fair Feathers Photopolymer Stamp Set in Hero Arts Pool to Navy Ombre Ink and then cut them out with the matching Mama Elephant Fair Feathers Creative Cuts Die. The feathers are also adhered to the card with Foam Tape. My greeting is from the Mama Elephant Heartfelt Wishes Photopolymer Stamp Set and is also stamped in The Pool to Navy Ink. I used the matching Mama Elephant Heartfelt Greetings Creative Cuts Dies to cut the greeting out and then cut out three more from white adhering them on top of one another for a little dimension. Finally, a few Pretty Pink Posh Seattle Mix Sequins are adhered to the feathers. I love the Heartfelt Wishes Set, it’s so nice to have all of the different languages to say thank you! I hope that you enjoyed my card for this week’s Pals Paper Arts sketch challenge! Thanks so much for visiting today and enjoy what’s left of your Saturday! 🙂

Hey Justin! What a stunning card!! Those colours are amazing, the whole thing is just gorgeous!! I love your photo of Daniel – you’re right, he could definitely be a model! He is looking so grown up now isn’t he? Might be time for a little brother or sister!?! 🙂 Yesterday’s Stampin Up party went well, it’s so fun just to get together with friends and stamp – we had a good laugh, and of course there was chocolate… ;-D I hope the rest of your weekend is awesome Justin! XOXO

Hi Justin!

Hello Gerri!
Thank you! I too love feathers but you know that! LOL! Blue is still my favorite color after all of these years! Love that Ombre ink, love them all actually! Hope that you had a nice weekend! 🙂
The feathers are very striking with the color blending. And the vellum over the Bermuda Bay really tones it down so the feathers op. Beautifully done Justin.
