Duck Races

What a busy week!  But I managed to complete a two page layout with two challenges in mind.  These are more pictures from Steed's Dairy (see first post).  With many corn mazes, Steed's has water pump duck races.  I used the sketch from Scrap Much? Oct. 19 sketch challenge.  And I also cut ducks using my Cricut for the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge #133 Down on the Farm.  Now my ducks are a little non-traditional in color, but I like them :)

The sketch:


My version:
 
(Not the best lighting.  But I finished the page at 8 PM, so natural light was out of the question.)

Supplies used:
k i Memories Classic Prints Paper Pad - printed papers
Crafts Etc! Brights Paper Pad - cardstock
Brads from my stash
Chipboard Letters (I've had these so long I don't even remember where I bought them)
Cricut Catridge: Animal Kingdom - duck (p. 87) at 3 inches and beak and wing layers using shift key (I hid cuts that would make the body). The ducks were made with cardstock found in my scraps folder. I used Sharpie markers for details.
