Thanks/Thanksgiving

 

 Hello Monday, my friends! And welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. Thank you for joining us for the  THINKING OF YOU  Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.

This week the challenge is: THANKS/THANKSGIVING

I began with a watercolor background in fall colors.

 

I added black splatter and edged it with ground espresso ink, then sprinkled water around the edges and lifted some of the ink. 

I stamped the chicken, but since the paper is rough, it did not stamp well, so I stamped the chicken again on book paper and glued it over the other image. 

I stamped and adde d the words... 

On the other side I stamped some seed pods. The same thing happened with the middle image where it did not fully stamp, so once again I did it again with book paper and smudged some ground espresso over it. 

Details...
