Our Feathered Friends

I'm standing in for Julia this fortnight at the Craft-Room Challenge as she is still away and Our Feathered Friends is the theme I have chosen for the challenge.

Crafty Individuals are our sponsors for the challenge.


For my DT piece I've used a Crafty Individuals stamp, No CI-289.


I started with a kraft card blank and a Crafters Workshop Mask. The main image was stamped and coloured with Distress ink, I stamped another image and coloured the chickens, then I cut them out and adhered them to the main image. I matted the image onto a piece of paper straw. I wrapped some bakers twine around the top of the card and added a flower that I'd made using my flower loom.

The rest of the DT team have made some lovely samples and they would love you to visit the Craft-Room Challenge to take a look.

I'm entering this in the Crafty Individuals October challenge - I'm hoping that the colours are Autumnal.
