The LEAD of this challenge will receive their choice of TWO PETITE SETS from Taylored Expressions!
I chose this fabulous set from Taylored Expressions called Light As A Feather. Yeah! I finally have some feathers and feather dies in my collection!
The sketch is from I Heart Sketches and I immediately pulled out my chicken wire embossing folder - oh how I love this thing! Such a fun pattern to add to cards and it fit the "farm" theme perfectly. Chose my colours for the feathers from the inspiration photo and off set them against the kraft. Added this fun sentiment and a few extra black half pearls for a little something as the focal panel was a bit plain. Finished things off with some orange twine and a button.
