This is for today's sketch challenge and also today's alphabet challenge letter Q for quill.
I love this designer paper in some of my favorite colors. I added a thin strip to the inside as well.
I die cut three squares and then fussy cut the thin frames from the outer parts that remained. I used vellum to tone down the designer paper so that the handwritten sentiment could show better - written using the quill, of course! I added sponged ink to the edges of the feather and popped it up with dimensionals.
Thanks for the challenges and thanks for looking!

This is incredibly beautiful! The feather die cut is so much fun, especially as it is used for "writing" the sentiment. Great job fussy-cutting the frames. I struggled with it, and asked myself why I set this sketch up like this!! LOL

Very pretty abstract paper and the use of vellum was brilliant, Catherine! I like your thin squared shapes too. Your card is so attractive in these fun colors~
