Stampin' Up! Australia - Create with Connie and Mary #352

Hi

Welcome to this week's Create with Connie and Mary Thursday Challenge.


My poor Four Feathers stamp set had been neglected for some time, so I thought that these challenge colours would look good as feathers or leaves. 



Here are the colours for this week's challenge:


I also used the inspiration from CASE This Sketch and ShowCASe Your Style this week. This card is definitely my 'default' style. I like all the white space and even though I thought it would look great with some sponging, or a scatter of sequins or rhinestones....I just couldn't do it!! :) I often have to force myself to embellish. Part of me even thinks the Basic Gray sentiment panel is a bit too bold. ha!

  4. Love the feathers, Alison! They go so well together and I like how you gave one of the soft sky feathers a touch of green. A beauty of a card!

  5. These colors are perfect for the feathers, and you have made a beautiful CAS card! I love how we see just a fine line of Wild Wasabi as a frame for the card front. Really sharp!

  6. I love your CAS style Alison - a girl after my own heart! These feathers are so pretty and the grey sentiment panel is perfect. I must confess, I bought this stamp set yet find myself struggling to use it - I'm going to pin this one for inspiration!
