Cheeky Chick

Hello!

My second GD post was over at Create A Smile today with two spring themed cards.  Here is one of them using the sweet chick from Eggstraordinary Egghunt:

 
I embossed the background with a stencil from Simon Says and inked over it in Tumbled Glass.  The two stitched circles are die cut from Simon Says and I watercoloured the quirky chick.  I don't often use spring pastels but I think they do suit this cute character!
 
I will link up at Simon Says Flickr Challenge #15 which is a springtime/easter theme and at AAA Cards Easter Colours Challenge.  I will also link up at Virginia's View latest challenge - layers as this card has 4/5 layers so I think it qualifies!  It is open until 18 May so there is loads of time to play along.
  
Thanks for stopping by :)
