Gina K. Preview Day 2: Pretty as a Peacock


peacock

Here is a card I made using the new set Pretty as a Peacock illustrated by Asela Hopkins, which will be available for purchase in the Gina K. store on Thursday at 10 p.m. CST!!  It is so unique because Peacocks are one of God’s many beautiful creatures.  Since most Peacocks are yellow green and blue, I reached for Ocean Mist, Creme de Menthe and Sweet Corn. Since the peacock’s feathers drape so far down, I thought it would be nice to cut it outside of the oval nestability shape I used.

The image was colored with copics and I used my Sky Sakura glaze pen over the blue areas for sparkle.  I used part of the sentiment for the outside of the card on the small oval shape and put the rest of it: ‘is the shadow of God on the Universe’ ~Gabriela Mistral on the inside of my card. 

For even more samples with the stamp sets being previewed tonight, including Lawn & Garden illustrated by Rupa Shevde, check out these designer's links:

I hope you have plans to join us for our Release Party this Thursday, July 1st starting at 7 pm central on StampTV! There will be challenges, contest questions, and more samples from our designers on all the new stamp sets being released this month!  You don’t want to miss out on all the fun now do you??? Hope to see you there!!
