Fun Feathers Card

creativeibby

Hello lovelies,

I do hope you are keeping safe.

I have been exploring a more simple style of cardmaking recently and to be honest this card is one of my favourites thus far. I have always loves feathers in design . Ironically, this is the first card that I have made with feathers on it and it is everything that I imagined it would be.

You will need pattern paper. I used recollections brand specifically the Bible journaling paper stack. I loved the gold foil detailing on the paper so I had to try it in one of my projects. As you can see the paper has a feather pattern so for continuity I used feathers as embellishments for the card.

Before we get started, don’t forget to join my email list so you know exactly when I post a new project.

Here is what you will need:

  • Kraft cardstock
  • Gold glitter cardstock
  • Pattern paper
  • Foam tape
  • Cricut Explore OR;
  • Stamp for greeting or printed greeting
  • Black ink pad (I love versafine onyx black ink)

Here are the instructions:

  1. Cut patterned paper to 4.25 inches by 5.5 inches.
  2. Cut feathers using Cricut Explore from complimentary pattern paper ensuring colors used complement the background.
  3. Place foam tape on the back of two feathers. these two feathers will placed be at the either end.
  4. Glue a feather in the middle of the pattern paper panel and add feathers with foam tape on either side.
  5. Cut a 0.4 by 2 inch rectangle from Kraft cardstock and stamp your sentiment in black ink. I wrote mine using my Cricut Explore and a pilot V5 pen
  6. Mount Your greeting on foam tape
  7. Cut the word “you” from glitter cardstock using the Cricut Explore or a die
  8. Adhere greeting and glitter die cut in the center of the feathers.
  9. Glue panel to a 5.5 by 4.25 inches card base.
  10. Your card is complete!
