Feathered Hello

One of the things I've been doing is keeping busy making cards to send to family and friends.  I can't see them so the next best thing is to send them a special note to let them know I'm thinking of them.  It's hard for all of us to be away from each other.

Today found me playing along with a couple of challenges.  The theme from the Just Us Girls Challenge gave me the perfect opportunity to use one of my new Mini Delight:  Strength stamp set from Altenew.  It's one of their mini stamp and die combos and I love the feather outline and the little stamp that colors just the tip of the feather.  The colors of pink, gray, green and Kraft, from the Color Throwdown Challenge, worked well for the feathers. 

I've entered my card into the following challenges.  For the challenge details, click the image(s) below.

Feathers

Today I have for you a clean and simple card showing off my Light as a Feather Stamp & Die Combo from Taylored Expressions.  While I did have the Baja Breeze and River Rock colors, my red is not Riding Hood Red as I'm out of it.  I substituted a red but I'm not sure which color it is as it was a scrap in my left overs box and it looks more orange in the photo than what it really is.  And, as you can see, I have this little spot going on at the top of my photo.  I'm not sure if that means there is dust within the lens as I've cleaned everything twice now and it still shows up.  Sigh... I'm hoping it doesn't mean that my camera is wearing out.

Now I'm off to run some errands while the sun is still shining.  It's been gloomy and cloudy the last few days and the sunshine is a welcome relief.
