So I have been participating in the #sisterswithheartinart challenge on IG, and every week there's a new prompt, this week was  "Peacock", so I took it all the way. I started by drawing on black card stock.

I used Prismacolor pencils.

Then I colored the body in and cut out the outline. 

 

Just the body, but I left the bottom connected.

Then I got my bag of feathers.

Then arranged them behind the body. 

 

First feather.

Then I attached it all to a distress inked background. I also hand lettered the quote and mounted it on glitter paper. 

 

So many feathers! 

So many feathers! 

 

This did take a while, but It was really fun, next post will be my first post for Quick Quotes! Happy crafting!
