Thanks to Julie Hickey from Craftwork Cards who has inspired me to use sequins on my cards. You can purchase as many as 500 for as little as £1.50 from Ebay so a little can go a long way!
I originally made these two peacocks many months ago but didn't really like the mass of grey background so held back from finalising the card until I felt inspired.
Well today the inspiration came! Why not use sequins on it I thought. So I did. I stuck them on with PVA glue and when it was set I then added some glossy accents over each sequin to ensure they would not fall off.
I am so pleased with the end result. I am definitely going to find more ways of incorporating sequins into my card making. I think a little bit of stickles in turquoise around the sentiment will tie it in better with the peacocks so I am going to do this later on.
