Our first set this week is a gorgeous one called Strut Your Stuff!
I've embossed this gorgeous peacock with Copper Embossing Powder on watercolor paper and watercolored it with teals and celerys and turquoises.
I used my Spellbinders Nestabilities to give it a frame but tucked the tail out of the nestie so it would have an out of the box tail. I sponged color on the inside of the nestie and layered it together.
I added a pretty criss-cross of cording and copper brads to the sides under the main image gave it gorgeous teal velvet ribbon and this fabulous paper from K & Co, with gems to match.
