Stampin’ Up! World Treasures Peacock Greeting Card
I created this World Treasures peacock greeting card and when I got done I just wasn’t sure if I liked it. It was late, so I left my stamping corner and went to bed. The next morning I entered my stamping corner and was welcomed by this beautiful peacock and fell in love! Really how can you go wrong with this exotic creature!
I stamped the peacock twice in Rich Razzleberry and once in Primrose Petals. I die cut one of the Rich Razzleberry images with the Big Shot Die-cutting Machine and the largest framelit from the Apothecary Accents Framelits Dies set. That became my main focal point. I then trimmed out the inner fan of the Primrose Petals image with Paper Snips and trimmed out the peacock body of the other Rich Razzleberry piece and layered those with Stampin’ dimensionals after coloring some of the feathers with Stampin’ Write markers.
Sometimes when you stamp a solid image like this peacock body you can get a little splotching. I whipped out my blender pen and picked up a little ink from the stamp pad and blended in the Rich Razzleberry for great coverage!
And is it possible to decorate this fabulous bird without bling? I think NOT!! A row of rhinestones does the trick and really is absolutely stunning in person.
The International Bazaar Designer Series Paper is all the rage in the background! This pattern paper is a powerful design with a lot of Pop!, but having lots of white space around the peacock allows it to work and gives this World Treasures Greeting Card a very rich feel.
The Apothecary Accents Framelits Dies, the International Bazaar Designer Series Paper, Basic Rhinestones Jewels Accents, and the World Treasure Stamp Set are all part of the International Bazaar Product Suite found here.
Enjoy, Julie

That peacock is amazing!! Such a beautiful focal point and that paper behind finishes beautifully!
just lovely!
Beautiful layers on that peacock!
Loving’ this card! The colors are great!
Loved the card! Its beautiful. You’ve mentioned that you cut the peacock using a die. I could not find the one for the bird. Could you tell me which one you used?
thanks!
I’m so glad you like it. I used the Apothecary Accents Framelits Die. That’s the label that the peacock is stamped on. I stamped the peacock first and then die cut the label around it. It doesn’t cut the peacock outline but it frames it nicely I think. Thanks for the feedback!
