Hello Dear Friends!
It's time once again for a new challenge over on the Double D Challenge Blog!
Here's today's theme:
FEATHERS
and here's an inspiration board created to help get you started . . .
Here's what I've created today ...
I seem to always be in need of sympathy cards these days so thought the 'feathers' theme would work well for a masculine sympathy card. Though hard to see in the photo, I've used a brown 'leather' like background card stock then splattered my white panel using Tattered Angel 'Bronze' Glimmer Mist.
The feathers came from the Stamperia 'Forest' paper cut outs and I used some very old brown Hemp for the accent. My sentiment is by Creative Imprints Rubber Stamps which I picked up at the Adventures in Stamping Convention a few years back.
You'll want to be sure to pop over to the Double D Challenge Blog to see all the details and amazing samples offered up by our VERY TALENTED design team ladies!!

Loving the natural look of this beauty! Great splatters and those 2 feathers are perfection! What a fabulous sentiment too!
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, I feel the same way about having to make more sympathy cards. But recently I got a request from my daughter for wedding cards and I made eight. I love your card with all of the white space that you splattered. I’m just leaving the feathers as a focal point was fantastic because that sentiment means a lot.
ReplyDeleteGosh, the sentiment chokes me up. That's an absolutely beautiful sympathy card, Darlene!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely great card with an exquisite design. Love it xx
ReplyDeleteLovely sympathy, I have a feeling I am going to be in need of one very soon. Beautiful sentiment to go with your feathers!
ReplyDeleteI like the splatters on the background and the feathers tied up with a rope. So nice!!

Fabulous! Love the design and neutral colors. That sentiment brings tears to my eyes.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty feather card, and a great verse too. A few days after my Mom passed my brother and I were sitting outside and a large white feather dropped from the sky between us and not a bird or tree in sight, your card reminds me of that day!!
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry you had need to make this card but it is lovely and I'm sure it will bring comfort to the recipient. The splatters and leather look paper are perfect for a masculine feel. Thanks for sharing at CAS Colours & Sketches.
ReplyDeleteLove this card! The splatters, the feathers, the twine, just everything. But mostly I love that greeting. It's a beautiful sentiment, so perfect for the occasion!!!!
