I have a post today on the a2zScrapbooking Supplies Blog featuring the Hero Arts Feathers Stamp Set.
For my first card, I inked up my new Feathers stamp set with two shades of pigment inks using the "Rock n’ Roll" technique. I embossed the sentiment with Pumice Stone Embossing Powder, and inked the Hero Arts Borders Stencil to add a pop of color to the card. I also added a few of my DIY clear enamel dots (made with Perler Beads), and a thin strip of glitter cardstock.
For my 2nd card, I inked one of the smaller feathers in this stamp set with versamark and embossed them with white embossing powder, and inked the background with 5 different distress inks.
Well, that's it for me today. Don’t forget to link up your creation for the 'Stars and Stripes Linky Party' for a chance to win a $25 gift card to the A2Z Scrapbooking Store!

Gorgeous cards Barb. Love the softness of the first one and the brightness of the second one is stunning.
Wow, Barb! Both cards are so pretty! Wonderful, soft colors on the first one, and love the embossing and shading on your second! Beautiful designs too! ♥
I could't help to immediately think... light as a feather!
beautiful design Barb!
stunning feather images! LOVE that emboss resist!
Beautiful cards, Barb! I've been looking for a smaller container of those beads so I can try making the enamel dots.
Wow, gorgeous feathers, Barb ... cool and elegant with the first, vibrant and rich with the second! Anita :)
Barb gorgeous cards and feathers, love both but the white embossed feathers just pop right off the card.
Both beautiful cards Barb! And I really like the airiness of the first one!!
You have done a FABULOUS job on both cards, Barb! I love the overall design on the first! ADORE the colors on the 2nd ! Congrats on the Hero Arts Tweet!
both cards are just beautiful, barb... love the softness of the first one!
I love the soft and the vibrant look you creating keeping the focal element the same :) Love these
Two lovely cards - really fun how you changed things up between the two showcasing the feather's versatility.
Wow Barb your 2 cards are gorgeous. Love the sparkle on the first one and the beautiful background on the second one.
Ooooh these are both stunning Barb! I don't have any feather stamps, because I have never quite known what to do with them, but your cards are very inspiring! You've done some serious gorgeousness with this feather! Love them both! ((Hugs))
I am one of the few who doesn't get the feather rage, but I have to say your two cards are fantastic, and you may be making me reconsider the feather thing!
