Ink Stains: Make a Peacock Mardi Gras Mask with Rinea Foiled Papers!!

Hello Friends!

Mardi Gras is drawing near and I wanted to share this fun peacock mask I made with Rinea Foiled Papers....

Fun huh?

And it's so easy to make and personalize.

Step 1 - Make a foiled paper sandwich of foiled paper, cardstock, foiled paper. This will help add some stability to the finished mask so it will hold it's shape.

Step 2 - Cut mask in desired shape. I made a "swish" up at the top to be stylish (from behind) and to support the peacock feathers.

Step 3 - Apply Tear It! Tape around the edges.

Step 4 - Remove the tape piece by piece and press on the sequin trim.

all the way around the mask and eye holes.

WOW, look at that shine!

Step 5 - Make peacock "eyes". I cut the blue eye by die-cutting a heart from Sapphire Starstruck Foiled Paper and trimmed off the bottom point. Next I cut a circle from Jade/Jade Starstruck; ovals from Marigold and Voilet and Emerald Starstruck foiled papers.

Step 6 - Add shredded foiled papers to the back of the eye for fringe.

Trim the fringe to the desired shape.

Step 7 - Mount the peacock feathers to the mask. Add any additional embellishments - in this case I added a flower gemstone and curled Violet and Gold Starstruck foiled paper strips.

Step 8 - Mount a dowel rod behind the curled papers.
