ABC_ alteredbookclub 12 Days of Christmas Swap

I choose day 3 of the 12 day of Christmas...3 french Hen.

 I started with a 5"x5" piece of  recycled cardboard stamped the back using green starzon ink,and red starzon for the words. On the front I adhered srapbook paper, stamped words in black starzon ink. To create the package I started with a 4"square of textured card stock,folded it in half,stamped the words on the lower half in black starzon ink. Using my SLICE die cutter I cut out the hens their nests and the bow for the front.I adhered the hens to their nest then to the upper half o the card stock.I then adhered the folded square to the 5X5 square added clear VELCRO to fasten it closed and added the bow.
     MERRY CHRISTMAS
                AND
   A HAPPY NEW YEAR

Got up this morning to ice and sleet everywhere.After 30min of deicing the car, I tryed to go up the hill to the highway andslid back down it, so I stayed home today. It has snowed all day.The weather man said it will snow untill about 9pm . The fish pond is all but frozen over.The bird have vistied often today, I put out bird feed under some lawn chairs and under the front of the travel trailer.

Sence I have been snowed in today I have  traveled around the world with OHOW (One Heart One World) blog give away. I have visited 17 new to me blogs.What fun I have had looking at these sites and reading about these wonderful people.
