Bohemian Peacock

Still playing Bingo over at Poetic Artistry & having a ball! Today I decided to do something really "different" for me that is. I started out with my patterned paper as the theme of this card. I bought this really cool pack of paper from (The Angel Company) called, Rustic Chic and have just been dying to use it. Normally this isn't a look I go for but it's growing on me.

Then I paired that with an equally cool (okay I love that word) set of stamps from (Hero Arts) called, Sketched Birds.

I decided to go with very little stamping on this card since I had been at bowling all morning and wanted to make sure I had a card for the current Bingo round. I stamped the Peacock Image using a Kaleidacolor Pad (Caribbean Sea) on Shimmery White card stock & punched it out with my Mega Oval punch. Next I used the Giga Scalloped Oval punch & pierced holes and the highlighted each hole with Waterfall Stickles.

I glued the designer paper to some Certainly Celery card stock distressed with Chocolate Chip Ink. I then wrapped a piece of Twistel (Making Memories) around this punched a hole and added the big brad (K & Company) that I've been dying to use. I layered this to my card base of Tempting Turquoise. The sentiments is from PAPERTREYink & is called (Paper Tray), I stamped that with the Kaleidacolor pad as well. The peacock & sentiment are both raised using foam mounting tape.

Again an easy card sto stamp but some fun embellishments gave it the pizzaz that I was looking for. This bingo game has really challenged me to be more creative and I have to say, Thank to Julee for such a fun game and challenge. Enjoy & have a great day. Ida
