Happy Saturday!
Even though I'm retired, I still get excited about weekends - just habit, I guess!
It's my day to post for Great Impressions, and I chose some of the newer
releases to showcase. This little chicken is spending his weekend on the beach,
flip flops, and all!
For today's card, I used these Great Impressions Stamps:
The chicken was stamped and colored, onto the focal panel.
Another chicken was stamped onto a post it note, and fussy cut,
to use as a mask.
The mask was placed onto the panel.
The Beach Sand was stamped a few times, to give this little guy
ample space to hang out.
Once the sand was stamped, the water was hand drawn with a marker,
and the sky was sponged with distress inks.
A Wink of Stella Brush Pen gave some sparkle to the sand and water,
and a thought bubble was created for a bit of whimsy.
Three little enamel dots were added as a finishing touch.
Hope you like him! I think he's a cutie patootie, for sure!
Don't forget about our GI challenge!

How what a fun card--a chickie at the beach. Nicely coloured.
Love this fun card. Your chicken is colored in such a fun way that I thought it was paper pieced. I love that sand stamp so perfect for beach scenes.

Cute bird brain! I hope he put some sunscreen on those chicken legs of his. Our atc club theme next month is seashells, so this give me an idea for a beachy scene!
