Hey Birthday Chick!

                                                            

Hey Birthday Chick On-line Class

Card #1

I simply can't get enough of the CHICKENS!  This bundle (Hey Birthday Chick) and the Hey Chick bundle are a necessary addition to your stash, but this class is just using the Hey Birthday Chick bundle....sad face...:(.   Here's how to put this cute card together:

  • Take your 8 1/2" x 11" Black cardstock (CS) and on the 8 1/2" side SCORE in half which is at 4 1/4".  Turn CS 90 deg. and CUT at 5 1/2". This will give you 2 card bases.
  • Cut a piece of Bumblebee CS to 4" x 5 1/4" and attach to your Black card base.
  • Cut a piece of White CS to 3 3/4" x 5" and stamp with Basic Gray ink using the "All Wired Up" stamp.....don't tell anybody but I already stamped this for you because I was afraid you might not have this stamp in your collection!.   DON'T ATTACH TO THE BUMBLEBEE CS YET.
  • Cut 2 strips of Designer Series Paper (DSP).....1 strip = 1/2" wide and 1 strip = 1/4".  I used DSP from "True Love DSP" and "2020-2022 In-Color DSP".  Now attach to the White layer and trim off ends and attach to the Bumblebee layer.
  • Die cut 3 each of the squares in White and 3 each in Black....see picture for the ones I used.

  • Stamp your image on the White Square and color using your Stampin Blends.  Here are the colors I used:  Light & Dark Daffodil Delight for her hair, Light Cajun Craze for the Cupcake base, Light Pool Party for the Icing, Dark Pumpkin Pie for her beak and feet.
  • Now attach to the Black squares and then pop them up on dimensionals, add your sentiment
  • Finish the inside, sign the back, decorate your envelope and your done!

These Gift Card Holders are fun and easy to make! I used up some of my retired papers on some, but you can use whatever coordinating papers you like and it can be for Birthdays, Christmas or any occasion you choose. Here's how you make them,,,, 

• Take a full sheet of 8 1/2" x 11" Cardstock (CS) and cut to 4 1/4" x 11". 

• On the 11" side, SCORE at 2 3/4" and 5 1/2" 

• Cut 2 pieces of CS at 2 3/4" x 4 1/4 

• Cut 1 piece of Designer Series Paper (DSP) at 5 1/4" x 4". (this piece will be glued to the inside of your card 

• Cut 1 piece of DSP at 2 1/2" x 4". (this piece will be the same DSP as above) 

• Cut 1 piece of co-ordinating DSP at 2 1/2" x 4" 

• Cut 1 piece of Whisper White at 2 1/2" x 4" 

• Before you start assembling, take one of your Round Punches (I used the 1 3/4") and punch out a half circle out of the end of your CS where you scored at 2 3/4"

Prized Peony Card #1

I love flowers!  Especially these beautiful Peonies.  I used Gray Granite and Petal Pink.  Pinks and Grays always go together.  So, here's how to make this lovely card:

  • Card base is Gray Granite (GG). 8 1/2" x 11" cut in half and then scored at 4 1/4".  (this gives you 2 bases)
  • 1st layer is Petal Pink (PP) cut at 5 1/4" x 4" and used the "Dainty Diamonds" embossing folder (also emboss a strip of Petal Pink at the same time...approx. 1" x 3" and flag one end.
  • 2nd layer is Gray Granite cut at 2 5/8" x 4 1/4"
  • 3rd layer is Whisper White (WW) cut at 2 3/8" x 4".  Stamp your Peony on this layer (or any other flower/design you like)
  • On a strip of Whisper White stamp your sentiment....cut approx. 3/4" x 3 and angle cut your ends
  • After all is stamped, start glueing together BUT first attach your Gray Granite Ribbon to the left side of your 1st layer (Petal Pink). NOTE:  you have 2 pieces of ribbon, the longer piece only wraps partially around the PP layer and the other ties on front in a faux bow.
  • Stamp the inside of your card, embellish as you like, sign the back, decorate your envelope and mail to someone you love!
