Whoa! Happy Birthday!

Awe, my favorite chick! I stamped him once regularly, and then reverse imaged him. Here’s the video showing how I do that:

I colored them both with Blends markers. I inked up the new Spiral Die stamp with Bermuda Bay and the Blending Brushes. There’s a couple of things on this card from the new upcoming catalog (I’ll update the product list once they go live):

Spiral Die Stamp
Basic Borders Dies (the hill they are standing on)

When I made this card, I thought it would be cool for a teenager. I showed it to my 15 year old and he laughed and said “those look like teenage chickens. Or surfers. Duuuuuude!” Success!

Let me know if you have any questions!

What?

Oh, man, I love the Hey Chick Bundle. The chicken on the front of the card is my favorite. I love the Hey Birthday Chick bundle too, and the chick inside the card is from that.

The Hey Birthday Chick is in the new catalog, but sadly, the Hey Chick isn’t, BUT! You can still purchase it through 6/30/21! I got this stamp set back in 2017 when it was a SAB item and I never got rid of it. And I still won’t!!

The last few days I could not think of ANYTHING to make! I hate it when my mojo is on vacation! Yesterday, I thought of this card and decided I would make it more “manly”. I showed it to my husband and he laughed! Success!

I made the fence crooked because have you ever been to a farm where the fence was perfect? I haven’t!

I made the background with the amazing and wonderful Blender Brushes. They are in the new catalog!!

Let me know if you have any questions!

Hey Chick from 4 Years Ago!

4 years ago, in January 2017, the “Hey Chick” stamp set came out as a SAB set! $50 bucks and you could get it for free! I loved it so much that after SAB was over in 2017, I kept the stamp set. When the new mini came out this year and the “Hey Birthday Chick” stamp set was in there, I knew it was “related” to the old one!

And then SU said they were rereleasing the original set AND! Matching dies for both sets. I was so excited! I took some pictures of my blog post about this card. Several things aren’t available anymore, but the most important thing- the stamp set- is! If you read the first paragraph and the last one, you will see that in February of 2017, I knew I would keep it. I did and boom! 4 years later and they’re back!
