Peacock

A 'Thank You' card today for a friend who gave me this fabulous Joanna Sheen 'Pretty Peacock Panel' die.
 I don't very often make a DL sized card, but it was the perfect size for this die.  The background was made with Distress Oxides and sprayed with a little water.  I laid the black die cut over the background and trimmed off the excess.  I used a small leftover piece of the background to make a mat for the sentiment.

I am joining in the following challenges:
