Pink Peacock

Good Evening!

Well, how is everyone this fine day? I'm finally back with a card *shock* yes, I've been crafting! small miracle I know - sadly, job applications are eating into my evenings again and my cards are being neglected, which is really annoying as I have all these ideas and no time to play! Anyway, enough of the moaning, tonight I want to sare a swirly, pinky, purple delight.
So the peacock is a fantastic stamp by Flonz which can be found here (I was really lucky and found mine on ebay, but I've got an order in for some of her other gorgous stamps too). Simply inked up and then highlighted with some stickles, I highlighted the tail with pearls - which I'd seen a DT member do on one of the challenge blogs - not that I can think who at the moment - but credit where it's due - not my idea! I layered it onto gorgous K&Co papers I've had for an age and finished it off with some yummy ribbon.

I love how clean and elegant this card turned out! Going to redo it with a green/blue theme soon too.

So there we have it! I would like to enter this card into:

Stampin for the weekend - Pearls and Swirls (if that tail doesn't count as a swirl, what does?!)
Crafty Catz - Ribbon and Bows
Everybody Art - Anything Goes

Until next time, take care and happy crafting!
