Another wonderful sketch from Jennifer Culbertson for this week's WMSC. I'm still playing with L'il Buddies so my card includes three of the adorable little chicks along with that sweet butterfly!
For some reason it seemed to take forever to complete this card. I made three tries to get the grass and chicks spaced correctly! Then the little guy in the middle ended up with his feet buried in grass so when I colored them with Copics they looked a little strange with the green grass streaks! I finally decided just to cut some out and glue them on top! Both the chicks and the butterfly are paper pieced, using Bitty Dots patterned paper in Lemon Tart and Raspberry Fizz. A little shading was added with Copics.
Wow, it was so warm here yesterday that people were out working in their yards and running around in shorts. Can't believe it is still February!!
So glad you stopped by. Love your visits!
SMILES,
Sharron
