It's a shame you can't see the shimmer on this Peacock stamp, from Blockheads Paper Arts. It's a new set, and I love it!
I used Smooch Paints and some Diamond Stickles to dress up those feather centers. I do have a close up on my blog.

Woo Hoo Colleen, I wish I could see this IRL. It's astounding just looking at it on line. I LOVE peacock feathers and these are so bright and beautifully done. The awesome matching ribbon tops it off along with the shape of the card. Way 2 go fellow punchie!

This is awesome Colleen. I know the shimmer you can get from stickles and smooch so I can imagine how awesome this is in real life. I love that color purple and happy your chose that as your complimentary ribbon color. Just beautiful.
