Chickens on the farm!


Hi everyone, I wanted to play along with the challenge at CASology where the theme is Farm.


I've had the Stampin Up Hey Chick set for ages but this is it's first inking!
I've used an old Annabelle Stamps set for the little chick, and the greenery from a Flourishes set for the grass. The sentiment is also from an old Hero Arts set called Find Joy.

A few of these sets are over a year old, Find Joy is 2013 and so is the Annabelle Stamp set Easter Chickadee. Retro Rubber Challenge Blog has an anything goes theme so long as you use at least one stamp over a year old.

RRCB 88

I scribbled tombow markers onto an acrylic block to colour the images with a water brush, so I'm 
also linking up to the anything goes watercolour challenge at Happy Little Stampers.
The optional theme is smile, I love chickens, their antics always make me smile!


At Word Art Wednesday it's also anything goes using a sentiment or a bible verse.

    Just cute as can be, and perfect 'farm theme'. Your watercoloring is marvelous and good to have a sweet comment from you. Trying to catchup with some commenting. Have a great weekend, TFS.

    Very cute card. We are truly blessed that you joined our Challenge earlier this month at Word Art Wednesday. There's still time to join our current Challenge and we'd love to see back. Leaving you with the inspiration of God's Word found in Isaiah 43:10 which says, “You are my witnesses,” declares the LORD, “and my servant whom I have chosen, so that you may know and believe me and understand that I am he. Before me no god was formed, nor will there be one after me." Have a great day!
