I'm back with my final Surprise Party Guest card for the Seize the Birthday Challenge.
The theme this time is:
Anytime I see a 'Things with Wings' theme, my thoughts immediately go to Penny Black chickens - ha ha! I'm rather partial to those stamps, and picked 'Cluck, Cluck, Cluck!' for my card. I stamped it onto watercolour paper, along with a sentiment using a stamp from the 'Go To Words' set by Visible Image, then coloured it using watercolour pencils. I paired it with papers from the 'Prince Charming' pad by Recollections/Michaels (found at TKMaxx). I distressed all of the edges, and added some faux stitching using my CutterBee Bug and a black gel pen.
For more inspiration from the wonderful Design Team, please pop over to the Seize the Birthday Challenge. Thanks so much for inviting me to the party - I've had lots of fun!

Your chickens are so adorable and nicely water colored. Fun card. Thanks again for being our Special Party Guest.
