This is Whipper Snapper's Fishin' Chicken, illustrated by Anna Wight.
I watercolored the main image. Used gold Zig Painty Pen for the reel and zipper pull. The grass sprigs at the chicken's feet are from Rubber Stamped called "Prairie Grass." I colored with markers directly on the stamp and then stamped over the chicken's feet. I sponged with Close to Cocoa around all the edges except the Riding Hood Red and the More Mustard card base and ran the tracing wheel around the edges that I sponged.
The "celebrate" stamp from Lexicon of Love was stamped in ColorBox Blue Iris chalk ink. The chicken is up on dimensionals.
