LOVE the color combo in this image (3rd picture down from the top) on our fabulous inspiration board this week.
Multi step stamping for the peacock. BG: sponging through the stencil and spritzed with shimmer spritz for some added sparkle. Die cut the oval from a separate panel, stamped the sentiment on the card front (anticipating where the oval would be), and assembled with dimensionals to create a 3D look. Added gems, then some Wink of Stella on the darker blue on the peacock. Finally, added the black branches to ground the peacock.

Gorgeous card! I love the background you created with the peacock feather stencil. And the little gems on the peacock's tail are the perfect embellishment.
