Peacock Beauty Card

Peacocks are such a now thing and for good reason. What bird doesn't like to flaunt their assets (yes, there was a pun there) especially when those assets include such gorgeous plumage? I stamped this peacock and brushed it with Versamark before chalking the color on it. Then I added Dimensional Magic to the "eyes" of the feathers. The peacock was cut out and adhered over the ribbon and sentiment using double-sided foam adhesive. Once again, the focal image, the sentiment, and the frame all came from the same great set of clear stamps.

STMC1- Poppy Chalk Card

So here is my answer to the first week of Stampendous' new sketch challenge as discussed in the previous post. I stamped and embossed in white one of Fran's great scenic designs, "Poppy Scene". Then I rubbed Versamark ink over the top and using fine-tipped cotton swabs, I colored in the image using chalks. It helps to go slightly over the lines because when you are through chalking, you will wipe over the surface with a clean paper towel to remove color from the embossed surfaces so that they will stand out. My two circles were stamped and embossed on a coral cardstock panel using the "Formal Frames" set. Punched and added two lime circles for a little extra pop, a cute swirl clip with a metal message and ribbon attached. It's amazing how you can take one sketch and come up with so many variations. Check them all out at the sites mentioned in the last post.
