CFC#121 - Pick a Feather Card


We've got an eight-feather card today.

Why 8? Well, there are 8 letters in "Thankful" and "Hanukkah," 8 nights of Hanukkah, and a CAS-ual Fridays Challenge to make a card using 8 of something. The talented winner this week will win a gift certificate to Simon Says Stamp.




Here's the front of the 4" x 4" tri-fold card.

And finally the inside. I am so in love with these papers. They are all from the American Crafts Dear Lizzy Lucky Charm line.


The die letters and feathers are from My Favorite Things Die Namics (High Rise Upper Case and Feathers and Arrows). There is just a tiny bit of adhesive on the bottom of the feathers to keep them in place, but they are meant to be flipped through and pulled out if desired.

As an added bonus, there are 8 letter dies on this card ... y-o-u-a-r-e-s-o.


It was really fun going through my stamps to find appropriate adjectives (all from CAS-ual Fridays). This idea could easily be adapted to anyone you need to make a card for. I love that you could pick very specific adjectives that would just apply to them. Like "sweet to my kids" or "artistic" ... as long as you like your handwriting you could make up anything for a very personal card.


Can't wait to see your 8-related creations in the CAS-ual Fridays Challenge gallery!

Thanks so much for looking!
