Feathers to heaven

My sister got a batch of chicks last Tuesday and "Sally" did not make it past 7 days. She was a cute little yellow chick, but she was not eating.

I made this card for my sister.

This helped me make this card using these challenges:
Raise the Bar - ABC challenge - looks like I missed the deadline.
and the color challenge at CRAFT challenge blog
Card stock and DSP from SU!
Ribbon from SU!
Sentiment from StudioG
Chicken from The Greeting Farm

happy thoughts

So I took the 30 min card challenge at Maria SPS - and it took me a little bit more than 30 mins (40 mins). Everything but the base card is from my scrap bin!
I used the wax paper technique - on the glossy paper which has the Cuttlebug swirls on it (so sorry hard to see the swirls - click the pics for a better view).

The little piggy is from The Greeting Farm
The white border (again hard to see - poor lighting this morning as it is overcast) is from Martha Stewart.
Strung a little bitty clear acrylic SU button with black DMC floss. This card goes with a few challenge - The Sisterhood of Crafters to try the resist wax technique
Color Theme of black and white and one other color (pink is what I chose) at Allsorts
and to use acrylic Practical Scrappers - it's like adding a secret element!
