Blues and Feathers

Hi Everyone!

I hope you are all fine and no-one has gone down

with the Winter Blues!

I am a bit behind with my tags, so am posting two in one

go. Whoever started that idea was quite brilliant!

I had a busy week, as it was my birthday, and had lots

of lovely celebrations  with friends and

family, so it was a bit like Christmas again!

I decided to look through my printed papers for my Blues

tag, and to see what looked good together.

I found some papers that I had stamped with a sunflower

theme, and liked the look of them . Also blue sunflowers seemed 

rather an unlikely subject, which appealed to me.

Here is last week's Feathers Tag.

I followed some ideas for Feathers

from Alisa Burke. I really like her blog, and

her vibrant style. I had been saving the ideas for

creating with feathers for the right time!

The background was created by rolling feathers

around in acrylic. I added a line drawing of a feather

from my feather duster, and gave it some corners.

I found the feather braid in  my ribbon stash, and thought

it would be a suitable addition.
