Here is my project for this week's party:

 

 

As soon as I saw this Pretty Peacock digital stamp, available in the CDD shop, I knew I needed to use it on some projects.  She is so sweet and pretty and I couldn't wait to color her and add some sparkle and shine. 

I created the background with some watercolors and gold color shine spray and backed that with some gold glitter paper.  The perfect backdrop for this beautiful bird. 

 

 

I colored her in with all kinds of greens and blues and purples and added a little gold Wink of Stella.  I used one of my new favorite sets of dies, Stitched in Circles for the shaker element.  The large scalloped circle at the back, the PML card I used for the sentiment, and the pretty wreath I cut out of glitter paper were all cut using this die set.  This one is going to get a lot of use.

And speaking of getting a lot of use... I already have more plans for this beauty.  When I printed her, I printed lots of different sizes and even flipped her to face the other way...

 

Check out the CDD shop for these items!
