Beautiful as a peacock!

For this week, I had to use this beautiful peacock from Designed 2 Delight to create a card. Thus, I used Nana Vic's frame to highlight this elegant animal and of course, to make it more into a "summery" card, I added the flowers from Designed 2 Delight (Please note that these were offered a couple of weeks back).

I went for a CAS card to represent the beauty of the peacock. I've coloured the image with my Prismacolor pencils and used pop dots to give the peacock an elevated effect.

Thanks for peeking.

Happy "Chic" birthday

Another birthday this week...This time is for my girfriend who just came back from Europe. I haven't had time to talk to her yet but will catch up this weekend.

The birthday cake image & chick image are from Tiffany Doodles, strawberries is from Designed 2 Delight, dancing couple is from Digi Darla and sentiment is from Create with TLC.

Challenges:

D2D Challenge - European Inspired
Tiffany Doodles - All creatures Great & small
