# Lace Border # Quill and Pot

Glittery and Gold by Susan Longman

by on
Hi, Susan Longman with you again. Today I have been browsing Pinterest and noticed in the world of papercraft (particularly scrap booking) there is a real trend for GOLD, GLITTER and FEATHERS at the moment. I have seen a load of layout in White and Gold so I thought I might give it a whirl on a card. My husband, not being aware of the trends, quite righty pointed out that the card design was probably more suited to Christmas but I wanted to reflect the trend in a birthday card.
“Feather” card by Susan Longman

To create the card I used my gold pigment ink on a white card base and stamped with a font back ground stamp (Kaisercraft) and then added a few circles using the lid of a spritz bottle in the same ink. I trimmed the edge of the card down an little and used the Francesca – B159 lace edge in a gold glitter paper. I then cut 2 of the larger “feathers” from the Quill & Ink Pot – B369, “fluffed” them out a little and tied them with some natural fibre twine and glued them in place. I have stamped the greeting (which could read Merry Christmas too) and matted it with the same glitter paper. A simple but very on trend card.

    Very cool card, Susan! Love the gold and white. I never would have thought of doing the gold on the feathers, but I love what you have done with them.
