Peacock pin and Card

I have always loved peacocks and when my parent’s had their farm they had around twenty at one time or another.  A friend of mine had this stamp set where you can layer the stamps on a peacock.  I was able to make it into a pin for her.  I added a few rhinestones on the tips of the feathers to give them a little bling.

I also had to make a peacock card.  This was all experimental and still a work in progress.  I first embossed a peacock on card stock and then applied glue to the raised areas.  After I let the glue dry, which it stayed tacky, I applied gold foil to the tops of the raised areas.  I then used watercolors and colored in the lower areas of the feathers with blues and greens.
