Ta dah! I have been working on this little number since Christmas-after getting my 2 step bird punch. I thought there must be a way of making a peacock, so I got experimenting. I did use the 2 step bird punch- the branch i used for the outline of the feathers, then 2 birds together for the body. Here's how it looked before I stuck it all together:
I thought I'd enter this one into PPA's 100th birthday blog post
"What's your technique?" (it's punching btw!)
I added a bit of texture to the body with more little punched hearts which I dipped in light green ink for a little definition.
For the headpiece I ended up using wire and beads (I had originally tried the leaves from the branch punch, but they just weren't working)
Enjoy!
