ItÂ’s been a very long time since IÂ’ve done a challenge. I covered three challenges with this card:
1-Flourishes Chat Challenge: create a card using an animal. (DidnÂ’t have a Flourishes animal to use, so I pulled out my trusty friend *Pierre* from Penny Black, but I did use the table, flowers and bottle stamps from Flourishes Summer on the Patio.)
2-CC179-Taken With Teal, Elegant Eggplant and Old Olive
3-SC195: This weekÂ’s sketch layout with 3 panels and optional sentiment.
I used the masking technique here for the vase, bottle and table which are all separate elements. I stamped the feet of my chicken buddy on the white piece, then on a separate piece I stamped, colored and cut him out and applied him with dimensionals. His wing holding the wineglass is also separate but not on dimensionals. His beret has black stickles. I masked and sponged the floor.
I hope the color in this photo looks OK. My computer CRASHED the other night and I'm temporarily using a computer with a bad monitor, so I can't tell the true colors. Oh well, it's better than not posting at all, I guess. Hopefully, I'll have my own computer back up and running soon. I sure miss it!
Thanks for looking!
