Ok, So I am laughing at myself right now. I ordered some stencils the other day and they came in just before I sat down to play with my "get well critters". I took one look at the stencil and my design immediately came to mind.
My blog went live today on the SNSS site as well as my own so I came over here to upload my card. I typed in all the pertinent info but when I came to the "accessories", I looked down at my stencil and it says "TH Honeycomb". Oh no! Now thoughts began to spiral through my head! Did I use honeycomb thinking it was chicken wire and now it's on SNSS site? Are people going to notice it's not chicken wire? Is it glaringly horrible that there should bees on my card and not bird? Big panic here until I googled "chicken wire stencil". Sure enough there are "chicken wire" stencils out there that look just like my honeycomb!! Phew! Ok, heart rate back to normal and maybe I gave you a chuckle today!
The "get well critters" set is part of the Sweet Perks Bundle for this month. You can view more details on My Blog.

This is adorable...the chicken, the background, the sentiment!
by the way....I just absorbed in my mind that it was chicken wire until I read your description more carefully!

Well, I thought it was chicken wire right away!! It could be because there is a chicken right in front of it! What gave me a chuckle as well, "feeling fowl?" I thought that was so hilarious!! This is so cute Angie!!

Adorable card whether it's REALLY a chicken wire stencil or not! Loved that you told about your panic, though. That so sounds like something I would do!

It said chicken wire to me, but loved your story - too funny - thought I was the only one who had those silly panic attacks. This is so adorable and would have been perfect for the DD All Cooped Up theme. Love the twine wrapped around the sentiment flag.

You crack me up because this is SOOOO something I would do. I too immediately saw chicken wire, but as your story started, in my head I was questioning just like you... LOVE your cute chick with the bum wing...just adorable. Your design of this ROCKS! GREAT job....
