Blue Peacock Dryad

Somehow it had to be a blue peacock, although white would have been pretty as well. I couldn't decide, so I made it blue. This amazing image is 'White Peacock Dryad' by the fabulous ching-chou kuik's Fantasy Art Collection. She comes as a single stamp, but is available on plate # 86 with three more fabulous images as well.




I coloured her with Distress Inks on heavy watercolour paper. As an accent I added some pearl glue on the feathers and on her tiara. As background paper i used Webster's page, which is like made for this image. As it is so rich with flowers and too beautiful to cover too much I only added a small punched stripe (Fiskars) in the middle and few flowers and a bow. The word I stamped by my own.

Thank you so much for looking. Always much appreciated. Wish you a magical day!
Hugs, Karina

    This is absolutely gorgeous. I love the colourcombos you use and for this card I love that there is so much going on, but still coherent. Love the cut out letters and your rose/bow embellies.
