Thank You for hopping along and we hope you had Loads of Fun!

Peacock Hugs!

NOW- let's get to my first project for today's hop!

As stated above, we are featuring PEACOCK COLORS and some fabulous new designs from the Pinque Peacock Store.

Let's start out with a picture of the finished project and then I'll give you some details!

When I saw this file for a peacock in the Silhouette store, how could I PASS it by?

I chose to use my purple pen to have it draw the peacock (my first time using the pens and I am IN LOVE with them!).

I then had the Silhouette cut out the image and then I cut yet another white version to give it a border.

I layered this pretty little peacock on a mat that I embossed, and then used foam squares to pop up that layer from the base of the card. I was THRILLED to find cardstock in the perfect peacock colors! 

  I just love the detail the pens made! 

You can see the embossing behind my peacock too!

I then wrapped some perfect fibers around the base of the peacock...again,

how lucky I was to find perfect peacock colors!

To finish this off, I added a BEAUTIFUL stick pin from the Pinque Peacock collection!

One final look at this card!

I was having such fun with some of the APRIL NEW RELEASES I had to make one more project to share with you today!

A little home decor project!

Here is a close up of this lovely Pinque Peacock silk fabric button that I applied to the little terra cotta planter!

I layered and wrapped some peacock colored ribbon around the little pot and attached the button.

How excited I was to find this PERFECT ribbon...it just screams

PEACOCK!  I took a few photos out in the sunshine so you can see the variation of 

color in this cool ribbon.

Click on any photo to enlarge.

As the final little touch to this bow, I added the Angel Stick Pin,

available at the Pinque Peacock shop! 

 Isn't she adorable popping out of my bow?

Now we add the bow to the top of this cute little bird cage I found at Michael's!

I have the perfect Spring Home Decor Item!

Thank you so much for visiting!  I am the last Pinquette on the hop for today! Please remember to come back tomorrow to see some more amazing projects by my design team sisters!

  I love to read your comments, so please take a moment to leave some love.
