 Chicken Card for my February, 2021 Creative Therapy Card Classes

 Stampin Up! is bringing back one of it's most popular Sale-a-Bration stamp sets from 2017, the Hey Chick set, and this time, they have created some awesome coordinating dies. 

But, that's not all!  SU has also created a second set, the Hey, Birthday Chick stamp set and coordinating dies.  

If you already own the Hey Chick stamp set, you can purchase the Chick Dies separately.  The bundles are discounted at 10% off! These are awesome new bundles, and will be available thru June 30, 2021, or while supplies last. 

So the above card is my take on the new stamps and dies.  Well, actually, it was a team effort.  Me, Wendie and Michelle, or MWM.  That's us. 

Recipe:

  • The base is an 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 piece of Old Olive scored at 4 1/4.
  • The So Saffron layer is 5 1/4 x 4.
  • The Basic White layer is 5 x 3 3/4, and is sponged with So Saffron ink and a SU Blending Brush.
  • The fence is Soft Suede.
  • The barn is Poppy Parade.
  • The corn stalks are Old Olive.
  • The corn is So Saffron.
  • The bow tie (doesn't every chicken wear a bowtie?) is Balmy Blue.
  • The egg-chick and chicken are stamped with Tuxedo Memento Black ink on white and colored with So Saffron, Poppy Parade and Balmy Blue markers.  They are popped up with mini-dimensionals.
  • The Happy Birthday is made by adhering Balmy Blue cardstock to a piece of Foam Adhesive sheet.  Lay the die on the cardstock/foam, and run thru your die cutting machine.  Once you peel off the backing of the adhesive sheet, you apply it directly to the card front. Lots of dimension, and no need for mini-dimensionals.  Awesome product! 
  • All done!!!  Remember to decorate your envelope.
