Peacock Background Card
Hi bloggers! You can use Pixie Powders to add beautiful colours to your Background and make the peacock to match with Distress Oxide inks too!
The finished dimensions are 8" x 8" in size. All for now, Sue x
Hi Sue. Home and safe although I miss waking to the dulcit sound of the woodpeckers it was amazing, such beauty, but as a massive favourite for tourists it was so quiet but still no staples for our kitchen cupboards or bathroom! Onto something happy beautiful and bright and a definite way to bring a smile to our faces - Particraft. I'm loving today's post and will enjoy watching you put this together it's sooo pretty. Hope everyone is being thoughtful careful and sensible during these horrible times. Stay safe stay well, and be happy xxx
Hello Sue Just watched your lovely video,such a pretty card.I can't wait to get back to my craft room though that is not for a few weeks yet. You are certainly helping to keep me sane in these crazy times. Stay safe everyone
Good Morning Sue. Ohhh how I love Saturday mornings. With my lovely cuppa ☕ and a great friend showing us all the latest tips and trends on the best blog ever. Every morning you take all our troubles of the world away from us for a few minutes while we drool over your beautiful work. Today is no exeption. The video is lovely and the card is Beautiful. Thankyou Sue. Sending hugs and best wishes to everyone who needs them this morning. Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, oh this is such a great video, thank you for sharing. One of my favourite dies is the Peacock set and you have produced an amazing sample, thank you. xx

Good Morning Sue. A wonderful card and great video. I love the Pixie Powders (although I'm not always happy with mine) and I wish now that I had bought the Peacock die when it first came out.The way you put everything together is a bit like watching a magic show. Stay safe Marie P.
Morning Sue and everyone, what a beautiful card, the colours are perfect and I just love the peacock and feathers. It's just beautiful. I still need blue pixie powder but I'm settling with blue shimmer shaker for now. Hope everyone is safe and well hugs Donna x
Hi Sue. Such a beautiful card, love the pixie colours used. will look at the tutorial later as gardening is on the agenda, it look a bit of a mess after the storms.
Hi Sue, a beautiful card created by a beautiful friend. Love the colours and admire your patience in placing all the individual feathers onto the peacock.
Gorgeous card and brilliant peacock. Your pixie powder background is so beautiful and perfect for your peacock. And the oxide colors you used on the peacock are lovely. I think you are ingenious to have designed your peacock for the individual feathers to slide into openings on the peacock tail giving great dimension. Wonderful video, thank you for sharing. Hugs
