Party Perch

I've dusted off an old stamp for today's card...it's one of the first Penny Black stamps I bought, and it's called 'Party Perch'...I just love the expression on the chicken's face!
I coloured the image using watercolour pencils, to match the bright colours of the We R Memory Keepers 'Hippity Hoppity' papers...see, I said you hadn't seen the last of those! I added faux stitching around the edges using my CutterBee Bug and a white gel pen, a sentiment (from the 'Cupcakes' set by Hero Arts) and a few paper flowers (from Wild Orchid Crafts).
