I have a Christmas card to share today...featuring an old favourite Penny Black chicken stamp called 'Snowboard Ride'. I stamped it onto watercolour paper, doodled a snowy slope using a black gel pen, then coloured it using watercolour pencils. I added a sentiment using a stamp from the 'Snow Bunnies' set by Anita Jeram for the Colorado Craft Company, then carefully cut around the top of the image. I layered it over a piece of paper from an unnamed pad from The Works, then matted it onto some navy card before adding it to a white card blank.

ReplyDeleteThis is delightful Helen, those snowy trees made a perfect background for your beautifully coloured and cut out chicken. Thanks for joining in the fun at Christmas Kickstart this month!
ReplyDeleteI love this, Helen! I really wish I'd grabbed more PB chickens when they were available as I really do enjoy seeing them. Love the simplicity of your card, and how the chicken 'pops' against that gorgeous background. All in all just perfect for the current Challenge at The Christmas Kickstart! Thanks for joining the fun with Joanne and me, Jo x
