Three French Hens

Morning... I'm a bit late today as I decided to try and beat the rain and go out on my bike... epic failure and I got absolutely soaked to the bone....

This weeks Less is More is One Layer week and the theme is "Something French"... I remembered I had this fabulous French Hen from a very old Penny Black stamp - 12 days of Christmas.. Perfect!!


I actually messed up the first one I stamped with a black fingerprint so I made a second card which is not one layer.... Thought I would share it with you as well....


I'm slowly trying to get back into the crafting again after being away with work for a few weeks... Hoping to get back in the craft room later today!

Have a fabulous Saturday!

  1. I love these cards! The French hen is hilarious, such a great expression, and absolutely perfect for our French challenge. (I wouldn't mind having the glass of wine it's holding... I've had a crazy few weeks at work too, though not away thank goodness.) Have a fab week Jen :) x

  5. Love this stamp set. They are all such funny looking characters. Two cards is always better than one and ahh the dreaded black smudge, a way to break acrafters heart.

  14. Brilliant cards Jen. The one layer is brilliant and perfect for the challenge, but I must say that the second card is gorgeous with the stripy card base. Lovely to see you at Less is More again.
