hello chickadee

Here’s a quick, simple card I made for the July Sketch For You To Try challenge.  I rotated the sketch 180° for my card.  I pulled out some pretty old designer papers for this one but I thought they fit the farm country feel of the card.  (It’s hard to see, but the strip with the sentiment is speckled.)  The only difficult thing about this card was making sure I didn’t cut off the little chicks’ feet!

Here’s what the original sketch looks like:

Supplies:
Stamps: Critters on the Farm (Lawn Fawn)
Cardstock: Barely Banana textured, Very Vanilla (Stampin’ Up); designer papers from Cottage Papers strips (Keeping Memories Alive)

Other: Premier colored pencils (Prismacolor); odorless mineral spirits (Houston Arts)
