Hey Chick!

Happy Canada Day to all my fellow Canadian friends! I made this card quick before heading out to the parade (my daughter marches in her school marching band). I tried to quickly load it up before I left and alas the internet connection wasn't cooperating with me. So a little late today but here is a sneak peek at what is hitting the farm on Thursday....new Kim Hughes....YEAH!
I did this with the sketch challenge inspiration on SCS today.

Here is a close look at some paper piecing I did on the chicken. You don't always need to use pattened paper when doing this technique. I just stamped this image out on white card stock a couple of times, colored with my copics and then layered up my chicken!

Here are all the deets:
Stamps:
On the Farm (Kim Hughes Collection) by Cornish Heritage Farms
Ink:
Tuxedo Black Memento (Tsukineko)
Paper:
Kraft, Simply Smooth WHite (Prism)
Accessories:
Copic Markers
Ribbon, Buttons (Making Memories)
Twine

Enjoy your holiday!!!

Hi Sherrie~ This card is fantastic! Love the simplicity of it, fabu buttons and sweetly colored chicken! I wanted you to know that I just ventured into the world of video tutorials, and you have been a great source of inspiration for me. Thank you so much for all you share!
