Freebie Friday

Good morning! It's Freebie Friday at Catch the Bug and this adorable chicken is up for grabs at the Bugaboo store! How cute is he?!

I've colored the image with pencils and paired it with some gingham papers...I like how they have that "homey" vibe. I've embellished simply with a die cut heart. Here's a close-up:

As You Like It Challenge: Favorite Dies or Stencils...And Why? (I have a few stencils, but always reach for my dies. I like that they are quick and easy. I love their precision for layering and that you can cut extra to "play around" with different combos before deciding on your combination. In particular, I like the stitched dies. Here, I've used my favorite die...the mini stitched heart from Lil' Inker Designs.)
