A bit of stamping, a bit of paper piecing, fussy cutting, heat embossing, some sparkle (see pic below). The eyes and beak stamped separately and overlaid. I like how the corner punch movement echoes the background stamp frame. The background is watercolour stamping. Because of the plaid I should have called in checkin' in.
I'm sure this chicken will find lots of goodies in this garden - bawk bawk! I still miss my chickens.
Background Stamp: Hero Arts
Corner punch: EK Success
Also: DI's, Copics, Cosmic Pixie Sparkles, white pen

ReplyDeleteThis is simply fabulous! Love the paper piecing and it's so perfect for our theme at I spy with my little eye, thank you so much for playing along with us!
ReplyDeleteYour background is so pretty for your adorable plaid rooster, great piecing. Love the corner punch you used and with the black border created a interesting and pretty frame.
