Outlawz Progressive Challenge - May2017

The image this month is called 'Chicken Run' by Di's Digi.    So darn cute, just love it. He looks like a duckie to me though lol!.  I will be using it as a Birthday Card  for one of my little grand relatives.

Card Details

The image was coloured with Copics . 

I used a sponge and Stampin' Up ink  to create the sky and Prismacolor Markers  for the grass.

To complete the scene I used a portion of a fence from  Impression Obsession die titled DIE034-U.

The striped designer paper is from a Graphic 45 paper pad called 'Time to Celebrate'
