Here is my beautiful niece.   A few weeks ago she asked me to help her disguise her turkey for school so that way he can saved from Thanksgiving.    So when I asked her what the disguise he was going to have she told me he was going to be a rock star.   That was so up my alley.    We totally rocked this turkey out!     I die cut some images, added some bling.    The feathers were made with the Leaves #2 Sizzex and my Big Shot.      Here is the work of art.    Happy Turkey Day!
