IMAGES:
- Peacock was stamped once and the limb (feather) was stamped 3 times and on an envelope with Memento Nautical Blue ink. They were painted with twinks an fussy cut. The circles on the feathers in areas were painted with Golden acrylic Iridescent Gold Deep. Cupped and flat sequins were used too. The flat sequins are are blue-green AB (Aurora Boreale) and show as different shades of blue and green. The itty bitty gold circles on the bird are left-over punched centers from a bottle of the sequins. The bow is May Arts.
BACK AND ENVY:
- I am really liking using the back of my larger card fronts as the area for writing my letter to the receiver. I did it on this card too. It is thinner for mailing and I even though I layer.
- Spellbinders Enchanted Labels 28 largest die was used for the front and back of the card.
- Lil' Inker Mat Stitched Circle die cuts were used to mount the image and the sentiment (which was also stamped with Memento Nautical Blue).
Don't forget to vote by reading the polls in my upper left-hand sidebar. You can follow the results there too.
Thanks for stopping by to look and share. Have a great week and weekend!!

Wow, this is absolutely stunning! Love everything about it.
Oh My - what a gorgeous card Shirley. I have a soft spot for peacocks anyway as my grandparents had them on their ranch as living "Alarms" when I was growing up.
OMGosh how beautiful. This has to be my favourite card of yours. You did a bang up job with the design and colours.
Oh, Shirley, it is so beautiful! Magnificent card, my friend.

I've been wondering where you were, so glad to see you back and WOW, this is gorgeous! You always take things to the next level of beauty! Thanks for the mention again, you are too sweet.
Simply STUNNING, Shirley! LOVE the jewel tone colors and the gems on the feathers! Also LOVE the mat on the inside!
Gorgeous card Shirley, love the vibrant colours against the white. I hope you are doing well, I know about life getting in the way of creativity these days. Take care, Shirleyx
Oh wow that is just gorgeous, your coloring of them is just fantastic, I love how you brought it inside and also to the envelope!!
The design works so well, the colors are harmonious but jump out of the white card. Gorgeous!
Love LOVE your coloring, Shirley. Thanks for the links to the other 2 designers to see their take on the image. I'm in awe of your fussy cutting abilities, and for your beautiful card design, too. It's a beautiful card, Shirley! hugs, de
Hi Shirley,WOW your peacock is gorgeous and love your coloring. What a beautiful card!!
Wow! What a gorgeous card!! I love it!!
Hi Shirley, Sorry to have been MIA for a bit. Just trying to keep up with things, and you know how that can get! I am blown away by this beautiful card. Thanks for the tip on keeping it one layer, and using the back for the message. Good idea. Love the lacey die mat and pretty color combo. The image was gorgeous, but the thought of all that leaf fussy cutting. And done so perfectly. Awesome! Love the sequins and seeing them on quite a few cards. Don't think I own a single package of sequins, so guess I better get with it! TFS such a super beautiful card...great job with every bit of it. Hugs
