Hey Chick and Hey Birthday Chick - Let's Celebrate You

This card uses a stamp set from the 2017 Sale-A-Bration called Hey Chick. but I loved that set so much that I'm glad I kept it, but if you don't have it, guess what? It is coming back on February 2nd as a Cling-Mount set and it has a new die to go with it called Chick Dies which you can purchase separately or as a bundle. The Hey Birthday Chick is in the 2021 January-June Mini Catalog on page 52 and it will also have a Birthday Chick Die you can purchase as a bundle or separately. Both sets coordinate with each other so I used the egg from the old set and the little chick from the new set. I was inspired to make this card from a sample I saw on the Stampin' Up! website. I used Bermuda Bay cardstock and Basic White to make this card. Here are the rest of my instructions:

1. The base of the card is Bermuda Bay cardstock cut at 4-1/4” x 8-1/2” and scored at 4-1/4” in the middle.

2. The second layer is Whisper White cardstock cut at 4” x 4”. Use the Blending Brush in Bermuda Bay ink on the Whisper White cardstock now called Basic White.

3. Ink up the confetti stamp with Bermuda Bay ink and stamp randomly on the Whisper White cardstock.

4. Ink up the sentiment “Let’s Celebrate You” in Memento Black ink and die cut with the Layering Circles Dies in the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine. Die a larger circle with the next largest die using Bermuda Bay cardstock. Adhere together and pop them up with a Dimensional in the center of the card.

5. Ink up four eggs and four chicks on Whisper White cardstock using Memento Black ink on Whisper White scrap. Color them in with the Stampin’ Blends. Die-Cut with Chick Dies and Birthday Chick Dies.

6. Put a Dimensional on the back of each one. Start with an egg at the top and go around in a circle with a chick, egg, chick, until your complete the circle

7. For the inside: Ink up the “Happy Birthday” sentiment with Bermuda Bay ink and stamp in the center of the card. Use the Blending Brush and confetti stamp to decorate the inside.

I'm not able to post the dies below until they are available on February 2nd as well the Cling-Mount stamp for the Hey Chick because mine was Clear-Mount. Both Cling-Mount stamp sets, Dies, and/or Bundles with be available from February 2 to June 30.
