I am really loving all the new layered stamps from Hero Arts.  In fact, I am loving the whole release.  It was hard for me to pick just one or two stamp sets to add to my collection.  In a stroke of luck I was able to get the Layered Peacock from SSS.  It had been saying “out of stock” almost from the moment of release, but one day when I was checking out the website, it was showing “in stock”  I added it to the cart and checked out before they changed their mind about its’ availability.  Sure enough, right after I checked out, it went back to showing “out of stock”.

I have already created three cards with it.  Two are in traditional peacock colours and the other was based on a white peacock I saw at a zoo in Australia.

Here are the cards:

These all look better in real life than they look here sitting weirdly on the seat of the golf cart.  I was trying to have full sun, otherwise the pictures look very bluish, and yet not have a shadow from the camera showing.  Glitter rarely shows well on camera but looks great in real life. The white one is embossed with both white and iridescent embossing powders and is my favourite.
