Peacock Cottage

Good morning crafty friends!
A country cottage with Peacocks in the yard...wow!




Material list

 Card size:  5” X 7”.

Make a shaped card (see video) using the outer die of the Elegant Swirl Gateway on folded white cardstock.  Cut another white front then glue it to card base matching all cut edges (note: it will not match fold but extend over). Cut a card front from blue color decorative paper, glue it to the card front matching all edges.

Use the next die in on the Elegant Swirl Gateway to cut the decorative part of this set from white cardstock. Glue it to the card front.

Stamp Ornate Window, Pea hen, and curved posey piece using black onto white, die cut, color.  This sample uses white Painty Pen on the baby’s breath flowers and white on the peacock.  Cut one of the cottages from the Countryside Cottages Paper Collection using the open window die from the Ornate Window. Pop window frame with 6 panes cut out over the cottage images, glue to card.

Pop up curved posy swag onto top of window and pop up the Pea hen to bottom of window.

Stamp leaves using Bamboo Leaves, sponge with New Sprout and Magenta Hue, die cut then form in the Leafy Accents Mold. Brush lacquer onto leaves.

Stamp Sunflowers using Vibrant Fuchsia, sponge with Magenta Hue, die cut then form in the 3D Rustic Sunflower mold.  Glue 2 flowers together then add yellow Prills to the centers. Glitter flowers.

Arrange leaves and flowers around pea hen and also glue 1 to the top of the window over flower image in the center.

Glitter flower images and card base if desired.

Thanks for visiting today!
