TSOT #666 Sketch Challenge "Just Chickin In"

This is my Design Team project for Try a Sketch On Tuesday (TSOT) Sketch Challenge #666, and combining it with our sister challenge Double Trouble #187The combination of these two challenges are a lot of fun... my fun was using the sweet Chicks for the sketch and DTC 3-2-1 Recipe "SomeThing, AnyThing, EveryThing". The ingredients for my project were 3-Dies, 2-Layers, 1-Design Paper, plus enhancements.   



Next to choosing the chicks in my stash that had never been used I chose one of my favorite CTMH plaid patterned papers for my background, bordered with Sapphire cardstock and adhered to a white cardbase. 

The chick dies were very small pieces and the die was one piece for most of the elements. So many cuts were made using different cardstock colors... but if I had given it a little more thought before all these cuts I would have used only white cardstock, colored each piece and assembly of chicks would have been less time.  Now I know why these were in my stash unused... lol  

Probably spent as much time in arranging and rearranging the positions of each chick to imitate the appearance of the sketch. These were adhered using glue and 3D thin foam tape for dimension. Not complaining because they came out so cute. 

A Happy Easter sentiment was going to be used, but thought the fun pun was perfect for an any occasion card.  

Hop on over and check out the TSOT Sketch Challenge, check out the Design Teams inspiration, let's see what you create... hope to see you there.
