CD Sunday - Peacocks

The challenge on the CD Sunday blog is 'inspired by peacocks' and there are prizes on offer too. I did a bit of 'thinking outside the box' and chose an image of a peacock butterfly from Joanna Sheen's CD of Jane Netley Mayhew designs - printed  onto pearlescent paper and decoupaged. Background paper is from Artylicious Peacock summer Party CD (Chocolate Baroque) and the Art Deco peacock feather was a Tanda stamp embossed in gold.

    What a striking composition & for that matter original idea. Your blue matting picks out the peacock eyes beautifully.

    I love this and the fact that you have used something other than the bird as that is what the challenge is all about. Thanks ofr joining us at CD Sunday again and good luck with the draw.
