Happy 4th of July, y'all! I hope you all have a safe and fun holiday!
Today I have a card I made using the Art Nouveau cartridge and the Animal Print cuttlebug folder. I have noticed that peacocks are all the rage at the moment in home decor. A few weeks ago I saw a model home that was decorated entirely in a peacock theme. You would have thought it would have been tacky, but it was actually really beautiful. Anyway, this got me thinking about making a project using a peacock cut. Besides it finally gave me a chance to use this cuttlebug folder!

I used Gypsy, Indian Corn Blue, Creme Brule, Crystal Blue, and Pear cardstock from Close To My Heart. |
I used the A Friend Like You stamp set. |
I could not make a peacock card and not use my peacock feather cuttlebug folder! |
The doily stamped image is from the Love Doily stamp set. |
This week's prize is the When I Was A Kid cartridge.
