Fine Art Floral Pretty Peacock Card
Original by Sharon Hashimoto Burkert
This is a very easy card and I think it’s beautiful. It’s made using my favorite suite in the catalog—the Fine Art Floral suite.
I used the new Blending Brushes to add a little Pretty Peacock ink to the embossed Pool Party card stock. They’re very fun to use and I love the way they work. After I finished, I just rinsed it out with water.
Attach the Pool Party piece to the card base.
Wrap the 10” piece of Pool Party sheer ribbon around the Pretty Peacock and designer paper layer and tie a knot. Add that layer to the Pool Party layer using dimensionals.
Stamp your greeting using Pretty Peacock ink and sponge the edges. Adhere the two pieces together and then attach to card using dimensionals.
Add diamonds which have been colored with the Lt or Dk Pretty Peacock Blend.

Just Want to Say Card
Assemble the first three layers.
Lay the words on to the circle to see where you want to place them. (I attached my words with glue and then I thought they looked a little flat so I cut out another set and attached them to the first ones by cutting little slices of mini glue dots.) I think they’ll look great if you attach yours with glue dots.
Attach the circle to the designer paper layer. I didn’t use dimensionals, but they would look great.
Attach the pearls which have been colored with the Dk Night of Navy Blends.
