An Indian Pavillion

There are two new wonderful sets of peacock themed stamps from Chocolate Baroque, Peacock Parade and Tangled Peacock.

 

 

I have been working with Peacock Parade and it's been very enjoyable. Here is one of the designs I came up with.

I started with making my fiery sunset background, using my leafy background technique in a range of yellow, orange, pink and red Adirondack and Distress inks. I added hills (or maybe sand dunes) in Seedless Preserves Distress Ink using torn paper as a mask. I die cut my pavillion using a DoCrafts X cut die, adding the trellis with a Memory Box die mounted behind. I added some gold pearlescent paper in the dome, with detailing using the peacock border stamp from the Peacock Parade set embossed in gold detail powder on black. I embossed the peacock in the same way and added red gems onto the pavillion and peacock. I added the palm tree stamp from a Christmas set Peace on Earth, the birds are from the Landscape Edges set and the sentiment from the Butterfly Dreams set.

Do pop over to the DT blog, linked in my side bar, to see the great work of my DT team mates. There are some great creative ideas coming up.
