Hey Chick and Hey Birthday Chick - Spring Chicken Slimline Card

Do you like chickens???  You will love these two sets with bundles starting on February 2nd. This card took a bit longer to make because of all the die cutting, but I cased it from a card I saw on the Stampin' Up! website.  This Hey Chick stamp set was from a 2017 Sale-a-Bration set that Stampin' Up! is bringing back along with a die to go with the set.  The Hey Birthday Chick can be purchased now from the 2021 January-June Mini Catalog on page 52.  However, if you want the die to go with it to purchase as a bundle, it will be available on February 2nd as well as the Hey Chick Bundle.  Here are the instructions for my card:  

1.     The base card is Balmy Blue cardstock cut at 7” x 8-1/2” and scored at 3-1/2” in the middle.

2.    The second layer is Basic White cardstock cut at 3-1/4” x 8-1/4” as well as the inside layer so cut two. Use the Blending Brush and Balmy Blue to color in the background of each scene.

3.    On scraps of Basic White cardstock, ink up the three big chickens as shown on the front with Tuxedo Black Memento ink.  Color them in with the Stampin’ Blends.

4.    Die-cut three corn stalks from Old Olive cardstock and three corn stalks from Pear Pizzazz cardstock.  Die-cut about 8 ears of corn.  Die-cut three fence dies from Crumb Cake cardstock.  Use Glue dots for ears of corn and corn stalks.  Mini Dimensionals for the fence. Stampin’ Seal for the chickens.

5.    Ink up the sentiment “Happy Birthday” and “You’re still a Spring Chicken with Tuxedo Black Memento ink on Basic White cardstock.  Trim them out with the Paper Snips and attach them with Dimensionals.

6.    For the inside:  Ink up the sentiment “Let’s Celebrate You” with Tuxedo Memento Black ink and add the goofy chicken with the cupcake and color him in with the Blends.  Adhere to the inside.
