Watercooler Wednesday's weekly challenge this week is Jean's colour challenge: Black, white and copper. I struggled with the colour combo as they're totally out of my comfort zone...Pulled out some retired sets: Four Feathers, Dictionary background and Tag Talk ...embossed the feathers with copper embossing powder..layered a couple of the feathers and stamped the Dictionary background over the dry embossed large polka dots and the copper feathers..Stamped and layered the Happy Birthday..Voila!! Challenge completed and another card off my to make list! Bonus! :)
Deets: All Stampin Up except for beaded window die
EDIT: OMG...Just discovered that I won the Watercooler Wednesday challenge!!! A great way to end my Monday and off to bed I go shortly. Thank you Jean for picking my card as the winner!!! Loved your challenge and all of the DT's inspiration. :)
Thanks for dropping by and leaving some blog love.

Stunning card, Sheri, I love the stamped Dictionary over the embossed dots!
Well, Shera, for colours that were out of your comfort zone, you've used them wonderfully well. I love all the details. The background stamping with the dictionary set, the feathers embossed with copper, the dry embossed polka dots---all the layers of detail really make this card interesting and special---worth a second, third and more look. Thanks so much for joining our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week.
Thanks so much Kathe for dropping by and the blog love. :)

Sheri your card simply rocks! Having seen it in person I know how absolutely beautiful it is! Wow the details you've included all go together beautifully. I'm in love with those copper feathers, and I so want to use that set again! Thanks so much for joining us this week at the Watercooler.
