Colour Me #12 Challenge

Good morning friends.  Just a quick post today as I wanted to get in on the Colour Me! challenge before it ends.  LOVED the subtle colors they chose this week and seemed like a perfect opportunity to play with a new stamp I had bought a couple months ago but hadn't inked up yet.  Are you into the feather craze that SO many others are into right now?  I didn't think I would be, but have to admit I'm really liking some of the cards I've been seeing.  Found a simple inexpensive feather stamp at my local stamp store and this is what I came up with:


The challenge was to use Pear Pizzazz, Soft Sky, and Coastal Cabana, and I thought those colors were perfect for this simple little peacock feather by Deep Red Stamp Co.  I kept the card very simple to focus on the beauty of the feather and the colors, and only added a sheer piece of ribbon and a few sequins, and my sentiment (PTI - "Blooming Button Bits"). 


You can check out the challenge and all the other great entries here .

Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great rest of your weekend! :0)

Now THESE colors are my faves! I LOVE how super the feather looks in them. Perfect design and bling, too. It's a winner in my book, Marcia! I have a post ready for tomorrow already, but I think I'll slip over and see how much time is left for these colors ... Hugs, Darnell

Oops, I see I'm too late. I'm writing them down anyway since they are so pretty together. Not to mention bookmarking your card!
