Today, I’m featuring Fair Feathers and coordinating Fair Feathers Creative Cuts. I also used the Femme Frames to create a for the sentiment. I cut the scallop rectangle from crepe paper and layered it for a soft and pretty look. After die cutting and stamping the outline of the feather, I rock ‘n’ rolled the solid feather stamp in a glue pad and then sprinkled obsidian, graphite and white gold glitter from the bottom up for a glittery gradient effect.

You can click on the photos to see the amazing sparkle up close. I used a corner chomper to cut off the tip of the feather before adhering it to the card so it looks like it’s going inside the ink bottle. I glued the bottom of the feather directly against the card and popped off the top end with foam tape to make it look more realistic.
