One Cool Chick

I just couldn't resist another Country Life card! I looked through the book and I liked the look of one of the chickens. I did use the sentiment of "cool chick" but added "one" at the front. And I did remember to save this time so I do have the ONE COOL CHICK cut file available *okie does a "yeah okie" dance*. The cut file is set to cut 4 cards at a time. Of course you can delete some cuts if you don't want to make 4. The sentiment is one piece and welded.

Supplies used -
Cricut Expressions
Country Life cartridge
Patterned paper - K & Co. and Basic Grey
Kraft paper for base
Cardstock - Prism, Bazzill
Spareparts Brad
Pop Dot for wing
Stampin Up and Cat Eye Chalk Inks

I did a little doodling on the card *okie can't seem to NOT doodle* and I think it always makes a card look a little better.

I decided to be daring and make that chicken with printed paper, which is a big step for me. If ya'll read my blog you know that I have a problem with making things that aren't appropriate colors. But I am trying to step out my little comfort box and walk on the wild side *okie finds this humorous that using patterned paper is wild side and decides she has definitely reached an older age*.

Oh also, one more thing. I did cut the grass twice to give it a some extra dimension. Well hope you guys like the card!
