Dottie's World "Hmm - Feathers?"

Evening everyone! Gosh three posts in one day, I have been a busy bunny! LOL! This challenge was set by June and here's what she had to say.....
"Hiya ladies, well if you didn't know it I love feathers!! This week I would love to see a feather or feathers incorporated into your card. Of course use a charmed digital download, and enjoy yourself hugs June xxx".
What a fab challenge eh? So, after some consideration, I came up with this design! I didn't want to do the usual girly marabou feathers so, after harassing the local wildlife, sorry only joking, after raiding my stash I found this feather! I had been storing it for an idea for a Red Indian card!! I think it does the job perfectly on here, secured with funky fibre and an eyelet!! I've used Chick Dottie from the Dress up Dottie download collection and for extra fun, done as I'm told and enjoyed myself by including words from a well known song via my now trusty lappy!
