A Card for CASology

Hello!

I hope you are enjoying your weekend :)  I had great plans to get lots of crafting done but the day seems to have got away from me somehow and I haven't been as productive as I intended!  However I did want to play along with CASology and managed to make this card inspired by the cue card - Egg:



I don't really send Easter cards so do not have many egg related stamps and was scratching my head a bit about what to do for this week's card.  However, I remember that I had got this stamp from Clarity ages ago and have yet to ink it up.  I love the way she is running :)  I coloured my chicken with pencils and used a Tim Holtz stencil to ground the image, adding a bit at the top to soften the white space.  The sentiment is from Reverse Confetti.

I just need to find someone who likes chickens to send it to!

I will also link up at Addicted to Stamps where the theme this week is Anything Goes.

I hope to be more productive tomorrow so may have something more to share then :)

Thanks for stopping by,

Sarah x

    What a great stamp! Beautifully colored too! I don't send Easter cards either so I love that you made it for a birthday.

    Great colouring and love the dots; they seem to go so natural with the chicken!

    Oh my, Sarah..how fabulous is your beautifully coloured chicken; it reminds me of the Bantam roosters my grandparents used to have on their farm! Thank you so much for sharing this gem - and your artistry - at ATSM's Anything Goes challenge!

    That is a really neat chicken, Sarah, and I love the way you used the stencil to ground her.
