Something For The Chicken Farmers

Hello.  Welcome.  I can hardly believe it's May tomorrow.  Wizz wizz old man time.  There is much weather for the time of year so while it rained I got busy with the Big Shot.  



I used Die-namites Spring Nest and filled it with pretty eggs.  The dare is to use bright and cheery colours so I used a lovely spring green Bazzill card embossed with leaves.  I mounted on a yellow base card and mirrored these colours for the sentiment tab.  I cut my nest once from brown and twice from black and offset the black layers to give depth.  I used a piece of burlap under the nest and the sentiment, which is a Unity stamp
