Peacock Layers

Send chocolate, y'all.  It is (checks calendar to make sure) MAY and Ryan has a snow day from school.  He's being an absolute pill this morning too.

Anyway, I have a card to share today with a stamp set I got probably at least a month ago and this is the first time I've inked it up, have a looksie:


All my stamps today are from Natural Artistry, which is a new Online Exclusive I think.  I can't keep track of what is released where any more than I can keep track of what's retired and what's still current.  I used this week's Creative Colour Challenge:


I like to combine challenges, but I couldn't get this one to mesh with the sketch this time so I chucked the sketch and just did the colors.  Sometimes that has to happen or it just doesn't work.

Supplies, all SU!
Stamps:  Natural Artistry
Ink:  Pretty Peacock, Early Espresso, Real Red
Paper:  Pretty Peacock, Early Espresso, Real Red, Basic Beige, Pretty Peacock DSP
Accessories:  Rectangles Stitched dies, Stitched Shapes dies, Stitched So Sweetly dies, Dimensionals, sequins, Wink of Stella

Ryan decided he wanted to cook the taco meat for Taco Tuesday, which rarely happens:


He then informed me that he's a better cook than I am, though he did concede that I might be a slightly better baker.  Ever so slightly.  As my friend John-Paul pointed out, that's a good way to get stuck with cooking every night.


And here's what our backyard looked like around eight o'clock this morning.  It's brighter outside right now but still snowing heavily.  Ryan is currently working on earning back his electronics time so maybe if he does that he'll be a little easier to deal with.  In the meantime, I may go eat more chocolate.  Cheers!

  1. I would never have combined those colours, but not only do they work, those layers look great with that peacock. Let's get onto the important stuff though - SNOW IN MAY?! That is crazy! Chocolate is most definitely the way to go!!
