This is for the current IO challenge, to be inspired by a song.
Birgit has a really fun challenge for the MixAbility today - Glue Art. I thought that the trail left by my glue would work well as a background for a dancing chicken . So this is my interpretation of the Chicken Dance song.
I trailed hot glue over the card, and when it was set I misted the card with a homemade mist, then sponged the edges with Scattered Straw. What else would a chicken be dancing in if it's not straw! Then I stamped the card with Distress, using Versafine Sepia.
The pink paint was done through a diamond pattern stencil - but because of the glue, it didn't lie flat on the card and the paint bled under it, so I just smudged it out more into circles. Then I stencilled Reverse Chicken Wire in black, and doodled a border round the edge.
The chicken was stamped on white card and coloured with pencils, distress inks and a Sakura Glaze pen for the beak and legs, then I cut her out and popped her up. Balloons punched from scrap and tied with black thread, also popped up.
