Good Morning! It's release day for Newton's Nook Designs! Their June release is so fun!! Today we are sharing cards made with the new Chicken Scratches stamp set:
Chicken Scratches is all about chickens! I had fun with this one! I started by stamping my card front. I chose a rainbow of colors from my Stampin' Up! inks and used them to stamp the chicken wire stamp over and over again until the space was filled. Next, I added a panel of the sunrays patterned paper from the Hello Sunshine 6x6 pad by Lawn Fawn and sewed around the edges. I added the doily and sewed the edge of that, too.
I stamped the chickens over the doily and on patterned papers with black ink. I fussy cut around the patterned papers and pieced them over the images on the doily. I added a bit of shading with my Copic markers and also added some chicken feed to the area around their feet. Aren't they cute? :) I added my sentiment last.
This set is so fun! Even if you're not a chicken person (I'm not! Hee!) this one might just grow on you! I love the way they look paper pieced... Chicken Scratches will be available for purchase on June 20th.
