Three lil chicks

I am so glad that you stopped by again.. I can't wait to show you the first card I made using my new BigShot.  It sure works like a dream.  I couldn't even wait 1 day... lol.  I told you the other day I got a shipment of some new stamps.. Mostly Penny Black but one of the stamps is this little chick.  It by Calendar Chicks - Hatched Chick is the name of the stamp.  I think it's the cutest little guy..  The three flowers I stamped on paper and cut it out.  Is that what they call "paper piecing"?  The stamps are SU - Fifth Ave. set.  I colored with copics the chicks and the middle of the flowers.  Then used some brand new glitter glue in some wonderful tubes.  It is by a company called "a la mode".  They have great colors and a perfect little point to get into the small areas.  It might be hard to see but the two on the outside have a fushia pink glitter and the middle flower that I popped out has a copper glitter for the middle.




 The plan is when I deciede on who will receive this card for Easter I will put, or stamp and cut out a journal square just above the chicks to write out my sentiment.
