Polish Easter Chick!

April 3, 2017

Day 3 of the Easter Parade! This card is done with Hey Chick. It is a Sale-A-Bration set. I hope you were able to get it as free product during Sale-A-Bration. If you were not, place a $50 on my website and I will send it to you. Please don’t indicate no contact or I will not be able to send it. I love this set as do many others. It was just perfect for Easter. This crazy chick has shown up a lot of places including this Easter card.

I cut my cardstock as follows:
Whisper White 5 1/4 x 4, 2 1/2 x 3 1/2, 5 x 1 1/4
Sweet Sugarplum 7 3/4 x 5 1/2 (score at 1 3/4 & 6)
Rich Razzelberry (2) 5 1/8 x 1 3/8, 2 1/2 x 3 1/2
Succulent Garden DSP 1 1/4 x 5

Start with the Sweet Sugarplum cardstock and cut it to 7 3/4 x 5 1/2 and score, with the long edge at the top, at 1 3/4 and 6. Then stamp the Polish Hen from Hey Chick on the on the 2 1/2 x 3 1/2 Whisper White. Cut him out using the Stitched Shapes Framelit Dies. Cut the oval from the 2 1/2 x 3 1/2 Rich Razzelberry using the scallop oval from the Layering Ovals Framelit Dies.Color the chick with Blender pens and Rich Razzelberry and Sweet Sugarplum.

Stamp three little eggs on the left side of the 5 x 1 1/4 Whisper White. Adhere it to the 5 1/8 x 1 3/8 Rich Razzelberry

To stamp the greeting in the card, lay the 5 1/4 x 4 Whisper White inside the card. Do not glue yet! Fold down the top and stamp below it on the Whisper White. The greeting I used came from Circle of Spring stamp set.

Now begin putting the card together adhering layers and attaching them to the card. Be sure to wrap the Linen Thread around the top layer before attaching it to the card. The last layer will be the chick and the scallop. Glue them only at the top so you can still open the card and write your message. Have fun!

This cheerful fall fun fold card combines pretty plaid, textured layers and a trio of colorful pumpkins! I used Calypso Coral and Basic White cardstock with Painted Patch Designer Series Paper for a fresh, welcoming autumn look. The Basic White panels are embossed with the Stone & Leaves embossing folder, adding a lovely leafy texture that complements the pumpkin patch theme. The diagonal cut give the card extra interest while allowing the layered focal point to take center stage. For the centerpiece, I layered a plaid panel over a Calypso Coral arch, creating a frame for pumpkins die cut from Calypso Coral, Timid Tiger and Crisp Cantaloupe. I love how these three shades work together, giving each pumpkin its own personality! Old Olive leaves and curling vines weave around the pumpkins and extend up the arch, bringing a touch of greenery to the design. A Basic White label with the “Warm wishes” greeting finishes the card beautifully, making it a sweet way to send a little autumn happiness to someone special.

This card is such a fun way to say “Oh, Happy Day!” It could be used for a retirement, birthday or any special occasion. I started with Basic Black Cardstock, which creates a bold frame and really makes the softer colors stand out. The beautiful watercolor background comes from the Beautiful Ordinary Life Designer Series Paper, with a little black-and-white pattern peeking out for added interest. The balloons from Balloon Festoon add the perfect touch of whimsy and dimension, while the greeting from the Greetings for All Mix & Match Ephemera Pack makes creating the focal point quick and easy. I love how all of these elements come together for a cheerful card that could be used for a birthday or just about any happy occasion!

This cheerful Stampin’ Up! card features a soft, monochromatic color palette with Crisp Cantaloupe from Painted Pattern Designer Series Paper, using the playful polka dots and coordinating horizontal strips. The oversized “Thinking of You” greeting that is die cut in Crisp Cantaloupe using the "Thinking of You" dies takes center stage, layered over Basic White for added dimension. Adding Crisp Cantaloupe Bordered Ribbon, a delicate White Baker's Twine bow, and 2026-28 In Color Gems provide the perfect finishing touches to this sweet card that is sure to brighten someone’s day.

This fun easel card features a beautiful mix of warm, earthy colors. The flowers from the Lovely Arrangements Bundle were created using the no-line coloring technique with Pecan Pie, Basic Beige, and Golden Glow, then layered with leaves from Nature's Symphony Dies against a rich Peaceful Pine background. Very Vanilla and Crumb Cake cardstock add softness, while a striped piece of Brushed With Beauty Designer Series Paper brings extra pattern and interest. Peaceful Pine Bordered Ribbon, tied in a simple bow, and coordinating embellishments complete the card front. The birthday greeting inside serves as the stopper that holds the easel open, making this card as fun to display as it is to receive!

If you love interactive cards, you're going to enjoy this elegant Peek-A-Boo Slider Card! At first glance, the rich botanical pattern from the Moonlit Flora Designer Series Paper takes center stage with its deep greens, delicate ferns, and warm golden blossoms. But with one simple pull, a hidden surprise is revealed, making this card as fun to open as it is beautiful to display. For this design, I paired the gorgeous Moonlit Flora Designer Series Paper with Mossy Meadow and Golden Glow cardstock to bring out the rich colors in the paper.
