Top of the the Heap! (PEEP!)

How many chicks are in my set? If you guessed "one", "chick" again! TIP: If you ink up just the outline and omit the face, you have a backward facing chick! :)

For my little pyramid here, I added an upside down dotted "v" to make a little tail, just to see, and it looks really cute either way! try and see which you prefer! I stamped all these on SU! Summer Sun CS and cut them out, all I had to color was the beak and use my white gel pen for the eyes. I did NOT have to cut out the legs, just stamped my "stack" on the white CS, then put my put yellow CS on top, went over the stamped legs with an orange marker. I adhered just the body so I could slightly bend the wings forward, almost like they're flapping or reaching out to hug you! I drew a faux zigzag stitch with my pen since I DON'T have a Jenome (yet). That gingham is actually patterned paper(either Wild Asparagus or Magnolia, it's from the Costco slab they had a while back)

You can also stamp several of these turned around in a little group , and then stamp the whole chick image hopping up out of the pile facing you: and that's you're favorite peep! :)
