I hope everyone is having a good weekend. We, in the UK are having a bank holiday, and, as is customary on a bank holiday in the UK, it is raining - well, at least it is in the south west - which is the downside of living on the coast. Anywho, here is the card I made for the Happy Little Stampers CAS Challenge - May
The brief was, to use die-cuts or punches.
As usual the DT came up with some stunning inspirational examples. Here are the rest of the pictures of my card, they are a little dull I'm afraid due to the dismal lighting. All supplies will be listed below.
In retrospect, I think if I did this design again, I would emboss the feathers in a matte embossing powder.
Supplies used:
Avery Elle - Custom Panels die set
Waltzingmouse - Fine Feathers, stamps & dies
Clearly Besotted - Love die
Incidentals - Cardstock, patterned paper, vellum, embossing powder, embossing folder & bakers twine.
As always, thank you so much for brightening my day with your visits and I hope you are all having a good weekend, whatever you are doing. Hazel xx
This card says so much, though not contain too many elements! I love its design. True mastery.

Hi Hazel, Finally made it to HLS and enjoying some marv inspiration. Saw your card and zipped over to say how much I like the way you've used the angle die. Wonderful texture with the embossing on that shape. Those finely etched feathers are so incredibly detailed & pretty. A very soft feeling on this card and such tremendous dimension with all the elements. TFS
