CASology #25: New

Hello, friends!  Happy New Year!  I am still wildly excited about my assignment as a Design Team member at CASology...what a way to begin the new year! 

I think the cue word for this week is perfect for ringing in the new year!

 

For my card, I used a Hero Arts sentiment and subtle Envelope Pattern background along with a paper-pieced "Faith the Chicken" from Purple Onion Designs. (I received this cute chick stamp for Christmas and have really enjoyed playing with it!)  Some subtle distressing around the edges and a little twine finish it off.


Maybe you received some new crafty items for the holidays this year?  Come play along with us...what a great excuse to break them in!  (Then again, who needs an excuse?!)

Thanks for stopping by...and Happy New Year!

    Welcome to the team Judy - we're so glad to have you! Love your folksy chicken and how you've kept the card very CAS while still being true to a folkart type style. Very clever! Happy New Year!
