Hello Fall - Technostamper 329

I'm not really saying hello to Fall, not yet anyway!  Although all the signs are there - the changing colours of the leaves, the cool nights, the decline of the blooms in my garden, and of course, back to school.
Fall is associated with change.  And there has been a lot of change in my life lately.  My favourite craft store has closed; a friend has sold her house and moved; my son's place of employment closed and he is returning to college for a fresh start; and my daughter and her husband are undergoing an acrimonious divorce.  The latter has been very disturbing as there are 3 young children involved.

I decided to made a card with 3 feathers on it - one for each of my grandchildren who are going to have to be tough like these feathers.
I used the sketch from Technostamper here to make this card.




Stamps:  Four Feathers, For All Things
Inks: Bravo Burgundy, Mossy Meadow, Smoky Slate
Papers: Bravo Burgundy, Very Vanilla, Whisper White, Color Me Autumn DSP
Accessories: Four Feathers Framelits, Circle Framelits, Fringe Scissors, Gold Metal Button, Twine, Toothpick (non SU), Fancy Fan Embossing Folder, 1/8" Very Vanilla taffeta ribbon

Great card, I love the feathers and what they represent. I will pray for you and your family and all the changes happening. Thanks so much for playing along with my sketch challenge this week!
