Tia's Tips: I have joined the bandwagon! I am giving up my paper-hoarding ways and the best way to do it, is to USE IT! There's always going to be another 'perfect sheet' that would have gone with that stamp or photo, but if you keep waiting or searching you're never going to get your projects finished-let alone started! So dive in and use up your stash. Today's project is doing just that!

The Project:
I have had a kit from Carta Bella called 'Country Kitchen'-for awhile. So when I saw the 'Just Chicken In' digi-set, I not only laughed at all the great sentiments in this set, I also knew I had some great papers I could use out of my stash!
I have became a design first/color last creator. So I pulled my paper, a chicken wire/or honeycomb die (depends which way you want to look at it!) and cardstock for layering. When I grabbed all the black cardstock scraps I could get my hands on I found a scrap of chicken wire design paper too! Woot woo! I die-cut out my image and sentiment (I like to print them together to conserve time printing) with the diagonal stitched square from Pinkfresh Studio.
COPICS USED:
Sentiment:YR18; Y17
Sky:B000; B01
Chick:YR14, Y02; Y08; Y13; BV00; W2
Grass: YG63; YG67; YG17; YG03
I hope you get the chance to flip through your stacks of pattern paper-pull out several sheets that appeal to you and have turning them in to a creative work of FUN!
