Today, I made a card inspired by a couple of Splitcoaststampers challenges: SC487 (Sketch), and TLC494 (Technique Challenge to use Watercoloring).
I used two Power Poppy sets today also: Marcella's Mixtape and Dynamic Duos: Peonies and Tulips
I used the Emboss Resist technique to make Marcy's gorgeous, delicate feather pop! I just stamped it with Versamark and embossed it with White Embossing Powder. I then took two different Spray Mists (Starburst-Lindy's Stamp Gang and Gingerbread Glimmer Mist-Tattered Angels), sprayed them onto my craft sheet and layed the cardstock, with my stamped image, on the sprayed surface. After that, I added some rhinestones to the center of the feather, and some Gesso around the diecut image. I embossed the background panels with 2 different embossing folders and scored the horizontal one. For the sentiment, I diecut a little banner border using an EK Success border punch along the edge, and scored two little stripes.
That's it for my project today. For some more Power Poppy inspiration, check out these Bloom Brigade Blogs:

*GASP* Soft, subtle, elegant and such a beautiful use of white space! Absolutely beautiful Tosh!
Wow... so soft and elegant. It's stunning Tosh!
This is so beautiful and serene Tosh...and absolute study of what makes layers of white gorgeous!
Oh, that's so pretty with the rhinestones on the feather and the sketch laid out all in different white textures. Very soothing and soft -- like a feather!
Oh, Tosh, what a soft and delicate card! I LOVE how you've used this lovely feather, and it's perfect for the sketch challenge! Gorgeous card! Hugs! (P. S. Saw a wonderful new profile photo of your and your DH on FB! Sweet!)
Love all the different embossed, white panels and soft, soothing blue you used. Adore the row of bling down the middle of the feather!!
Tosh -- this card is like a breath of fresh air! I love the soft blue and the embossed and delicate white feather that just takes center stage! So pretty! (Love the bling too!)
This is so beautiful and elegant. Love all the white with that soft pale blue sponging behind the single feather.
Soft, delicate and beautiful!!!
