Rooster card

Hello everyone,

Today I have a card to share that I made for the May challenge at Art Journey.
The theme this month is to use stamps from one stamp sheet or two single stamps. I chose to use the chicken set.


I made this background a while ago by painting and stencilling a 12' x 12' sheet of white card stock with the Dylusions paints and cutting up in 6 postcard/card size pieces. One of them was perfect for this card I thought. I stamped the background with the post mark stamp from the set and then added the text stamp to the top. Next I stamped the rooster from the chicken set and coloured him, cut him out and clear embossed him. I added some washi tape and put the rooster on top to 'ground' him. I also put a bit of the same washi tape in the top right corner for balance. Lastly I doodled a line around the card front and adhered it to a white card. 

I will also enter this card into the 'Take a stamp' May challenge at Craft Stamper

Thank you for stopping by today !
