Hey Chick, Happy Birthday Chick - Tri-Fold Card with a Wobble inside

Who would like to receive a birthday card with a wobble inside? My club remembers had fun making this card last Sunday and I decided to use it for my swap this month. This was a card I created as a tri-fold but inside I added the little chick with a wobble attached. I thought it went perfectly with the sentiment "Happy Birthday, You're still a Spring Chicken" since the wobble is actually a spring.

The All Wired Up was also used for the background. Both of these Bundles are still available through the end of June. The Wobbles can be purchased at any craft store.

My instructions:

1. The base of the card is Bumblebee cardstock cut at 4-1/4” x 11” and scored at 2-3/4 and 5-1/2” to make a tri-fold card. Randomly stamp the silly chicken stamp all over the front panel with Early Espresso ink. Clean off the stamp and ink it up with Black Stazon and stamp on a scrap of Basic White cardstock. Color it in with the Stampin’ Write Markers Bumblebee and Cinnamon Cider. Die-cut with the Chick Die.

2. The Basic White cardstock is cut at 2-1/2” x 3-3/4”. Insert it into the Stamparatus as well as the All Wired up background stamp. Ink the stamp up with Early Espresso ink. Layer onto the 2-3/4” x 4” Early Espresso cardstock with Multipurpose Glue.

3. Add the chicken with Dimensionals on the left side of the layers.

4. Die-cut “Happy Birthday” die with Early Espresso, Bumblebee, and Cinnamon Cider cardstock. Glue to the right side of the chicken.

5. Adhere to the center of the card using Multipurpose Liquid Glue but only put glue on the backside that has the chicken and adhere to the front.

6. For the inside: The Early Espresso cardstock is cut at 4” x 5-1/4” and the Basic White. Ink up the “Happy Birthday, you’re still a spring chicken” with Early Espresso and stamp it on the Basic White so it will be behind the front flap

7. Ink up the little chicken with Black Stazon on Basic White scrap and color him in with the Stampin’ Write Markers. Die-cut him out with the Birthday Chick Dies and attach a wobble to the back of him by peeling off the TOP protective layer and attach the chick with the spring face up. Peel the BACK of the protective layer and attach it to the inside of the card behind the front panel. Let him wobble!
