This was so fun to color! I googled chickens to use as a guide, and used Zigs, water, and a brush. I partial die cut at the top and bottom, and fussy cut the rest.
Supplies:
Stamps: Art Impressions Spring Chicken
Dies: Spellbinder Nestabilities Label
Zigs: Lt Gray, Blue Gray, Wine Red, Brown, Oatmeal, Midbrown, Beige, Mustard, Lemon Yellow, Colbalt Blue, Pale Green, Light Green, Turquoise Green
Other: Nuvo Drops Sugared Almond and Red Berries, scrap of light burlap, PP
These hens are going to go play over at the following challenges:

This certainly brought a smile to my face, these chooks are soo much fun, it's like they have captured their true nature lol.
ReplyDeleteOh Kara...these girls are just too much fun and wait till Nancy see's them!! You colored them beautifully too...they look so realistic and their facial expressions just crack me up! Cute, CUTE card my friend!! :0)
ReplyDeleteThese girls are fabulous Kara! I love how you've stamped and colored them. I have this set and these girls really do crack me up. Fun, fun card!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun card! The chickens are just adorable but that sentiment made me laugh out loud. It "cracked" me up! Sorry, I couldn't let that go by!
ReplyDeleteNow these are some great looking chicks. Not as cute as the LH chicks, but mighty cute all the same! As always, your coloring boggles my mind, and your attention to detail is beyond my comprehension. Love how your eyes 'see.' The burlap beneath the main panel was a great choice, and I love how it echos that sweet piece of patterned paper. Great card, chickiepoo! xo Bev
ReplyDeleteGorgeous girls (We have those girls too) and beautifully coloured. Stunning layout Kara. Nice coloured egg and flavour someone will get after they have eaten that cupcake lol.
ReplyDeleteOh my, the plumage, Kara ... it's fantastic ... I can almost stretch out and stroke it! Awesome colouring ... and such a fun scene ... these chickies are such cuties! Big hugs, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteNow I know you're not only an expert Copic colorist but a Zig one as well, Kara. I wish I had been at the Lakehouse longer to get some tips. These girls are so much fun and I love the burlap-y background.
ReplyDeleteYou sure have colored these girls (hens) up beautifully! It's really pretty how you added the panel to the fabric too! Thanks so much for playing along in Art Impressions Add Embellishments challenge!
ReplyDeleteKara, this is fabulous! Nancy will be tickled when she sees this..those girls are something else, aren't they? so much fun with all you girls last March...think of you lots and hope all is well. I am still struggling with this knee...it doesn't want to bend! The next step is a knee splint, I cried. It isn't because of what anyone has done or the new knee, it just is...I guess it has to do with my nerves. they scream: "don't bend it hurts too much"! Now I have to wear a splint and I am in charge of turning the knob so the knee bends a little at a time. Hope I can do it, I am not particularly fond of pain! *wink
ReplyDeleteWell aren't they FUN!! Love the way you've colored them and the textured you've added. This is cute and Nancy will love it!
ReplyDeleteEeek!! This is so amazing!! I love the chickens coloured beautifully in your own amazing way and the BG with the hessian is just perfect!
ReplyDeleteYou've made Nancy's girls look so beautiful, Kara! Here are the memes for over their heads: The chick on the left, "Was I driving?" The bird on the right, "Can we stop for air at the next gas station?" The bird in the middle: (say it with me!) "Well I don't know 'bout that." Miss you! Hugs, Troy
ReplyDeleteThese chickens and the sentiment are hilarious! What a fun card!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh ... this is so adorable Kara! Of course, your colouring is always amazing. Adding these chicks to the frayed burlap is AWESOME! Great design! xx
