Both ...What a great use of the feathers Momma Mary! Both card are amazing and I love how you used your feathers. I find it hard to come up with ideas using feathers. Plus I don't have the greatest feather die/stamp set. Love yours and love your ideas. That Carol does come up with fabulous cards and I love that you used a heart on your one twofer card. Well done I say!!! Wow, you guys got way more snow than we did. I can't believe all the snow and ice the south is getting! We've just had the extreme cold with a dusting of snow and that doesn't hurt my feelings one bit! lol Now Bret has gotten way more snow up where he is at. Guess I will stick in my little are. lol Hugs, BrendaBrendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11555452421297088756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9028799397835917329.post-61037124292251393622018-01-21T15:36:06.169-05:002018-01-21T15:36:06.169-05:00Super designs!

And the Valentine's for you hubby is lovely. I never would have thought to use blue for a Valentine with just a hint of red. Your snow pictures are fabulous. <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10952128621080511707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9028799397835917329.post-18695431024398039262018-01-18T19:48:18.298-05:002018-01-18T19:48:18.298-05:00Two beautiful feather cards Mary!!

I have got my choice of stamp out but got no further forward in actually finding time to making my cards! It is a great idea for a challenge isn't it.<br /><br />Lovely snow pictures too. I love to see snow that hasn't been disturbed!<br /><br />How nice to get cardinals on your bird feeders. The most colourful thing we get is a robin .. .. but he is a bit lazy and waits for the others to drop the food and he (or she) picks it up LOL!!<br /><br />I hope you are keeping well and had a good Christmas. All the very best for 2018.<br /><br />Love Jules xxJuleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17929184623066486028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9028799397835917329.post-52601491322092588972018-01-18T15:47:36.448-05:002018-01-18T15:47:36.448-05:00Both your cards are just beautiful, Mary!

And, the embossing on the other feathered card really makes for an elegant look. I hope your hubby had no trouble with the icy hill either. Most people here have 4-wheel drive so usually it isn't too bad driving in snowy situations. Hubby has his vehicle and I have mine. But I seldom go much anywhere without him now.Verna Angerhoferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13966604332988555300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9028799397835917329.post-12494624756388114332018-01-18T09:53:58.911-05:002018-01-18T09:53:58.911-05:00Sorry about your snow...Even here in this part of ...Sorry about your snow...Even here in this part of Wisconsin, we don't have much more than you do, though it's rather cold and windy today. I'm so glad you found this feather die because the cards you've created are just wonderful. The Valentine is a perfect masculine card, and I do love that rich, deep blue background of your birthday card. Thank you so much for joining us at the Twofer Challenge. Hope to see you in the gallery next month!
