Deep Red Stamps Peacock card

Another ATC theme for July is Peacocks. I actually had two peacock stamps in my stash but the one I used on these cards is the

 Peacock Stamp by Deep Red Stamps.

I pounced different distress ink colors onto the stamp before stamping it onto off white cardstock that I inked with black distress ink. I dry embossed the background cardstock with a Fiskars texture plate and inked it with blue and green distress inks. I inked the edges with black distress ink before I brushed the background with Perfect Pearls. 

The sentiments are misc vellum pieces from my stash. I run all of my vellum through the Xyron sticker maker. It's the only way I adhere vellum to projects. I embellished with blue and green rhinestones and I also used a Ranger/Tim Holtz tiny stapler.
