Twofer Fluffy Chicks

Hi.  I hope your week is starting off well.

Today I have a Twofer


Here's Darnell's Twofer Challenge #12


This Dina Kowal stamp from Impression Obsession tickled my fancy
a while back.  It seemed like a great opportunity to ink it up.


First up is a friendly chick all decked out in pink.
I think she'll be a good way to say "feel better soon".

She's been stamped with Versafine gray ink and colored with Zigs.


And my twofer dressed in yellow sparkles.

You can see the shimmer better here.

All this shimmery fun will be a good way to say "happy birthday".

There's still a few days day left to join in at the Twofer Challenge.


Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.

Enjoy!

Oh Bonnie...I laughed out loud when I saw your two fabulous cards...that's before I read one is for a get well card....lol x
Such a unique and wonderful bird image and love the vibrancy of the colours, the little bit of bling and the embossing folder too on card number one. Great designs too on both of them.
So unique and absolutely fabulous....love them x

Oh my goodness - this fluffy chicken is adorable, Bonnie!! Just love how you colored the image for both cards. Two fab designs!!

Darnell said...

Your very feathery bird tickles my fancy, too, Bonnie! Possibly a new hair salon? I'll bet it's super fun to color and it's a great versatile stamp to use for any number of occasions! I love how you have her peeking out of the corner and the e/f you used on your get well card, and the double wonky frame you used on your bird-day card! Thank you so much for playing in Twofer Card Challenge #12! Hugs, Darnell

Two FABULOUS cards Bonnie! Your two feathery friends have definitely made me smile and I think I need to check that stamp out! LOVE all the sparkles on the yellow one too! Cute, CUTE cards my friend!! :0)

Oh this Fluffy Chick image is so fun, Bonnie! Your twofers are awesome. Great design of the pink one peeking in from the corner square frame... definitely brought a smile to my face and I’m sure it will do the same to the recovering recipient. And your second chick all glitz up in yellow is ready to PAAAAR-TAY and help someone celebrate the special day. xx

That is a great Twofer! I really struggle with the Twofer challenge - my brain just doesn't seem to work that way! Love the bright pink and yellow you chose for the two birds - both are such cheery cards.

Leslie Miller said...

First time I've seen this bird. It's so funny and I LOVE it! There's always something new to give me a grin and you sure did it today. I especially love the peeking pink bird on your first card. Definitely a "feel better" card! The framing and sparkle and bold sentiment on your second has fun and smiles written all over it. The best cards are the ones that send a smile! Glad you played with us at Twofer, Bonnie!

That "hi there" card just cracked me up. I love the pink feathers! I have to admit I have looked like the yellow one when I got up on a bad hair day, back when I was blond. It will surely make someone smile and have a great day.

Hello Bonnie,
Your chickens are wow! I love how you dye their feathers, I love all the shadows and depth that you have gained by changing the intensity of the color. These chickens are so funny and you've beautifully designed both cards.
Hugs,
BożenA

Bonnie, these guys are priceless! who doesn't love a fun card. Love your coloring as well as the wonderful, whimsical font of the sentiment. (Sigh). Looks like I'll be shopping again! I just grinned when I saw these.

Loll said...

Those unruly feathers would tickle anyone's fancy, Bonnie. Great cards and so colorful.

Ha! These twofers are totally adorable Bonnie! I love the way you have colored them both too. This bird cracks me up and I can see a lot of cute cards in your future with them. Hugs, Brenda
