Chicken card

Hi friends, I hope all is well in your world. Yes it's Saturday yet again and so I have my usual 'Less is More' card to share with you.
It's a recipe this time and......  
Snippets

The lovely 'Queen of CAS' Chrissie's our  glorious leader over at 'LIM' is celebrating a big  birthday this weekend. (Ssshh .....70.......I know  ...I know....I don't believe it either!!!) So anyway  it's Snippets for Chrissie.  Happy Birthday Chrissie!!  
Hmm...... I pondered and pondered,  hunted around in my 'snippets' pots......ahem...I have  so many a few around.      Then I saw this cute little  chicken die which had been cut out and left to fend for itself. I know Chrissie loves chickens so.... now I  had a plan.      I coloured it with some distress inks. Then I looked through my box of snippets....yes I  have pots AND boxes of them! Anyway I  spied a few printed sentiments.      I cut one out using a wavy die on both sides. I used a bit of distress inking on the embossed  chicken bits.I embossed  the sentiment too.

 I added a small star painted to  match the  sentiment and job done.Chrissie is a star after all isn't she ;)

Hmm does that chicken look as if it is heading back up to the chicken coop ?.......I think so ;) 

ps. Have a lovely weekend, we went to see our new granddaughter yesterday and we are  babysitting  her tomorrow too. Our grandson is  off to a party with his parents! 

Pleased to report that Amelia now smiles at me  instead of just a puzzled look and a frown lol. She has a middle name now too Amelia Ai-Mei.      Ai-Mei is pronounced I-Mae, Ai means  'Love' and Mei means 'Beautiful'. Her lovely Taiwanese mummy chose her second name. Mummies name means 'beautiful flower' ......isn't that so lovely ;)


Right enough rambling, come and have a  closer look at my card.....
