One more time with the Perfect Peacocks

I had to have a few cards in the pack of peacock cards that showed the entire image. I am not sure you can tell from the picture but the feathers are a gray shade with blue and green accents. This image is so big that if you use the whole thing there is not much to do with the card so they are super simple!Yet still really pretty.




Stamps: Pretty Peacock

Paper: Pear Pizzazz,  Whisper White
Ink: Momento
Other: blendabilities and black marker
 
Happy Saturday--hope you are enjoying your weekend!

More Perfect Peacocks.

I almost forgot about you guys again! Not sure why I can not seem to get to the computer to get my posts up lately. I am busy crafting and making all kinds of things then giving them away without remembering to take pictures and share. What the heck, it is not like I have not been doing this for years! Must be the new embroidery machine that has me on overload--I am having so much fun with it though. Hopefully I will get back on track with my posting soon.  I have a few more Perfect Peacock cards to share with you today....


This stamp is really big and kind and beautiful!  I have a friend who collects peacocks so I made her a set of note cards for Christmas--these were included in the set amongst many others.  I colored the images with the blendabilities.  They really look great in real life. 

Stamps: Pretty Peacock

Paper: Pear Pizzazz, Island Indigo, Whisper White and All is Calm DP

Thanks for visiting today--I hope you enjoyed my quick post.

Monday Lunchtime Sketch Challenge 346 (TSSC346)

Can you believe it is only days from Christmas!  Oh my--I really have a lot to get done.  Been really busy as you probably can tell by my lack of posts--I have only been getting this post done and not much more--sorry.  At least I am keeping up with the sketch challenges--kinda-I never had a sample for last week.  Anyway, I hope you are ready for the holiday and that you will have a little down time so you can play along this week.  I have a great sketch for you to try and I know you will need a little break from everything at some point this week!  At least I know I will, lol!  So let's get right to it.  Here is this week's sketch.....


I think it is a pretty easy one--and fun too!
I shortened mine to a regular size card because I was adding it to a gift set for a friend that I bowl with.  I made here six cards two each of three different designs with the peacock--she loves peacocks, so I am sure she will enjoy these!  They were fun to color too. I will share the other ones with you soon.  I have lots of cards made and ready to share I just don't have the time to sit down and post them.   Here is my sample:

I have really been obsessed with these colors as of late--I bet you knew that!  But they really are so pretty on the peacock--and close to true colors too.  I left the rest of the card plain and simple.  And the inside has a partial peacock image in black, not colored--and then it is left bland for note cards.
Stamps: Perfect Peacock
Paper: Pear Pizzazz, Soft Sky, Island Indigo, All is Calm DP
Ink: Momento
Other: ribbon, circle dies, scallop edge punch, blendibilities

Now for the rest of the Design Teams samples....
