The pretty peacock


Hello friends!

I'm sharing a card that I thoroughly enjoyed creating. Here's a customized birthday card featuring this beautiful bird, the peacock! I absolutely adore this bird.


I hand drew the peacock body and feathers separately, and painted them with acrylic paints. I stamped a leaf shape on the feathers heat embossed some gold embossing powder.

I assembled the peacock on my card base (covered with printed cardstock). I placed a string of pearls at the base of the feathers. Added the die cut sentiment at the top of the card. Final touch with a die cut lacey border at the bottom anda few embellishments!

    Wow! This is so creative and so beautiful! The vivid colors look fantastic and I cannot believe that you hand drew the different parts and pieced them together... really fab! Thanks for playing at Inkspirational Challenges!

CAS bday card

 Hello friends! Happy Monday!  I'm back with another birthday card today and I'm playing along with a few challenges. The pattern on the moodboard at inkspirational challenge took me to a kaiserkraft stencil in my stash. I used the stencil and distress inks to create the stenciled pattern at the center of the card. I sprayed some water over it to allow the distress inks to react. I adore butterflies and I wanted to use them as an element of freedom for the ATCAS challenge. I heat embossed a butterfly image with a contrasting embossing powder- color blend verdigris from WOW, so that it stands out against the stencil pattern. I placed the stamped sentiment (kaisercraft) at the centre. Playing along with the below challenges: Inkspirational Challenge #290 Seize the Birthday #262 ATCAS #238   HLS may birthday Thank you very much for stopping by. I would love to know your thoughts about my project. Stay safe and take care...

Happy women's day to all the lovely women out there. Hope everyone's having an amazing day! Today, I have a card for all the wonderful mom's.  I used the altenew stamps and colored the beautiful florals in pretty pink (still working on my coloring skills).  The stitched scallop frame is colored with distress ink.  I placed the sentiment at the centre and assembled the flowers on the frame.  Final touch with Ranganjali stardust sequins.
