Royal Peacock

This is the first card we made at my last Cookies & Cards class and it was a card I sent into a swap I participated in last month.  For the swap I used the Old Olive foil and for the class I used the Pretty Peacock foil.  (I ran out of Old Olive.)  I still need to photograph the swap cards, we will see if they make it up on the blog.

When I saw how pretty the peacock was in this stamp set, I had to have it.  I especially love it in the colors of the Noble Peacock Suite; Blueberry Bushel, Old Olive, and Pretty Peacock.

Another Noble Peacock Suite

I wanted to make a card with the Noble Peacock Suite that didn’t use the peacock.  I die cut the leaves and feather from the Noble Peacock foil; the background is using the new Scripty 3D folder and some vellum from the Perennial Essence vellum pack; and that gorgeous two toned ribbon.

Noble Peacock Suite

I love the new Noble Peacock Suite, it’s just so rich looking.  For this card I focused on the beautiful peacock die cut.  I think the best way to show it off is to die cut it from the Noble Peacock Foil Sheets and hey since they are out why not die cut another color and emboss it.  So pretty.  I then layered that on a piece of the Noble Peacock Specialty Designer Series Paper.
