New peacock stamp


I couldn't wait to try a new A4 peacock theme plate from Elusive Images. I've always loved peacocks - they're so colourful - and with the great selection of different stamps, I was dying to try out different techniques with shrink plastic and maybe Stampbord.

Here's my first attempt: I stamped a peacock using Staz On in teal and hyacinth blue, and painted it with Twinkling H2Os. I also created a shrink plastic tile, highlighting one of the feathers.

I think the peacock would also look wonderful on teal, green or yellow cardstock and torn mulberry paper.

I have a few girls' birthdays coming up so I used the trusty Hanna stamp to create these two cards. I added a handbag charm (Craftime)for a bit of extra bling.
