Card Corner: Focus on Feathers
Hi there! Yesterday was my first time to share over at
BASIC GREY
as one of their Card Designers! I'll be there for the remainder of the year :)
Basic Grey was one of my first loves in scrapbooking,
so it was a real honor to be asked to join them for a bit!
For my assignment I was asked to create two cards with a focus on the
new "Second City" Feathers by Kelly Purkey
First up....a "Hello Turkey" Card
It’s hard not to look at feathers and think of a bird, turkey or other
feathered fowl! I found a coloring book template of a turkey’s body online,
printed it onto a piece of paper and then trimmed out. Next, I placed the
cut-out onto the back of the yellow paper and traced the design and cut out.
For the body, I used a 2.25″ circle die to cut the paper and then layered it
with the front of the turkey. Before arranging the feathers to the back of the body,
I machine-stitched down the center of each. Cluster the feathers as you’d
like and adhere to the back of the body. I cut a strip of purple paper to
3/4″H X 2.75″W and cut a V into one end. I added the sticker letters and
then adhered below the turkey with foam adhesive. The wooden
“hello” was applied just above the purple strip.

UR So Cool Card
For this card I chose to arrange the feathers in a circle shape to resemble a wreath.
I die-cut the center of the herringbone paper with a 3″ circle die and then mounted
it onto a piece of the yellow paper. To attach the vellum feathers I used Glue Dots.
I separated all of the cuts to each feather to add more dimension.
To the top of the chipboard sentiment, I attached one of the flair buttons
and used some black letter stickers on the top. the centers of the feathers
were accented with black enamel dots and a few wooden veneers.
