I swooshed some card through Evergreen Bough and Worn Lipstick Distress Inks, then stamped the feathers in Versafine Onyx Black and cut them out. I stencilled some Distress Ink through a masked portion of a Tim Holtz Dot Fade stencil, stamped the sentiment over the top, then added some cotton and a button.
