A cutie chick


Especially for you Katina lol ;o)  Katina left me a comment asking how I was getting on with my cricut... by coincidence I've been playing with it and my SCAL software today.  I've cut lots of different shaped animal cards - bought the SVG files here - but so far I've only made up the chicks.  I've been asked for a batch of Easter cards so I've done a few of these as part of the order.

I actually cut it all in yellow, then coloured the eyes black and the beak & feet orange with promarkers.  I've sponged orange ink for a bit of dimension, and then added some white highlighter here and there.  Simples :o)

Hi Lisa, you are already more adventurous than me with your cricut, I haven't got SCAL but looks like I need it.

Oh WOW! You have been busy getting to know the Cricut! This is fab.
Sorry I'm not around much at the moment, very busy with the jewellery at the moment. Actually taking over my life at the moment! I am trying to pop in every couple of days or so. Please don't think I'm being rude and ignoring you!
