\nRecently I needed a birthday card and that is the reason why I played around with stencilling<\/a> again ;-)<\/p>\n

 <\/div>\n

\"unikatissima
\nI wanted to have a negativ stencilled feather and sketched and cut therefore a feather.
\nHere I’ve made my first tests already.<\/p>\n

 <\/div>\n

\"unikatissima
\nI covered my feather with light brown chalk and smeared the chalk with my fingers outwards.
\nThis way I got white areas around my stencil which made the quill of my feather much too broad for my liking (see arrow).<\/p>\n

 <\/div>\n

\"unikatissima
\nTherefore I cut two half-stencils and used them.
\nIt worked great!
\nAnother advantage of this half-stencil method is the fact, that the really narrow quill of my feather can’t slip or even tear anymore.<\/p>\n

 <\/div>\n

\"unikatissima
\nI glued a cut-out feather shifted on my stencilled feather and because I thought that something is missing, I embroidered some lines with golden thread.
\nI used a running stitch back and forth<\/a> as I always do.<\/p>\n

 <\/div>\n

\"unikatissima
\nThat’s how the inside of the card looks – I left it this way and wrote on the right side of the card.<\/p>\n

 <\/div>\n

\nAnd that’s how the finished card looks: I liked it ;-) and the adressee liked it, too :)<\/p>\n

Admittedly the card looks still a little bumpy here because I fixed the chalk with hair spray. After everything was (really!) dry I put it under a heavy book and afterwards it was beautifully flat again.<\/p>\n
