Recipe Swap - "Seeing RED"


Mornin' hens! It's time for another Recipe Swap with the Catered Crop, and this week's featured ingredient is the color RED. Now that's EASY PEASY in my book, cuz' I LOVEEE RED! To play along just use the color RED on your project and link it up over at the Catered Crop. This week's sponsor is Paper and Such and one "clucky" hen will win a $20 gift card from their on-line store! Woo-hoo! And get this, they have a line of CHICKEN stamps!!! WHAT??? Oh man, this challenge has JEANIE written all over it!! Tee-hee! This is Hezzy! Ain't she a doll?? {{thump-thump goes my heart}}
Ok, so I stamped Hezzy onto white CS, and three different DP's too, and then paper pieced her together. I colored her legs, shoes, bow and beak with my Copics and added some shading to the paper piecing. I adhered her to the barnwood DP with a few pop dots and then stamped the sentiment from the Molly set and added some twine to resemble a hanging sign. To finish, I stitched around the edges and added this cute ribbon with a few buttons too! I'm also entering this into Karen's Sweet Sunday Sketch challenge #152 too! Here's the sketch....

Ok, that's it for me today! I hope you hens have a FABULOUS Friday and a WONDERFUL weekend! {{{hen hugs}}}

Supplies:
Rubber Stamps - Paper and Such; DP - My Minds Eye - Dilly Dally; CS - Neenah Classic Crest white, SU Cherry Cobbler; Copics; Buttons; Twine - Paper Trey Ink; Ribbon - Stamp Simply Ribbon; Stickles
