It seems da Mudder is concerned that them thar teapotters can't count, and she is sending them back to skool! Bertie is a-gonna learnt the teapotters how to count for Teapot Tuesday. And uh-1 and uh-2 and uh-3...
Mama chick is paper-pieced. Baby chicks were colored with Copic marker and then flock powder was added for their fuzzy-wuzzy li'l baby chick bodies.
I call this technique my Word Window Slider card. I've uploaded the closed and open views.
The final word window count reads:
"9,10....Count again!"

Hey, who closed the slider word windows??? Now I will never be able to count these 7 chicks! Snort!
You rocked this counting challenge! However, I am still counting challenged! Are we supposed to count the yellow dots? I have a note from the doctor, I don't do dots well, has to do with my home surroundings!
