This is my card for F which is represented by the feather and ink color Fossilized Amber.
Recently, we had friends who got married in Maui. This is my wedding card for them. Their invitations had a lot of beautiful blue so I wanted to do an ink blended background kind of like a sunrise but with a lot of blue. After ink blending the background, I used a bubbles stencil to stencil over it with the same inks giving a soft texture look to the background.
When that was done, I die cut the stitched feather out of the panel and put Rose Red cs behind the opening. I also die cut the heart from Rose Red cs. I heat embossed the sentiment (it really says Christmas blessings but I only wanted the blessings part). I adhered the ink blended feather over the opening using dimensionals.
The Feathered stamp set and dies is part of what I purchased with my Concord & 9th DTGD winnings. Thank you Concord & 9th and SCS!
Thanks for looking!

Love, love your thoughts behind creating this Hawaiian wedding card, Catherine! The bubbles reminds me of that song, Tiny Bubbles by Don Ho. So, this is a perfect card for a Maui wedding!
