Stampin' Up! Hey Birthday Chick

 

 Here is another 'Hey Birthday Chick' card!!!

It is sooo cute!!

This little chick just makes me smile!

Now who wouldn't want to get a birthday card like this!

I used the Foam Adhesive Sheets with the Happy Birthday Die, 

so that they were popped up!

This was super easy to do!

How did I do it?

I cut a piece of foam about 1 x 2", peeled the protective sheet off of one side

& stuck a piece of Terracotta Tile card stock over the top of it.

I then laid my die on top of this & ran it through my Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine.

It worked great!

I just had to peel the protective sheet off of the back side & 

it was ready to stick onto my card front!

 I love the way this turned out!

This is what the images in the stamp set- 'Hey Birthday Chick'- #154464= $21.00

& coordinating dies- Birthday Chick Dies- #158200= $27.00 look like.

 Or buy them together as a bundle & save 10%-

#158631- Hey Birthday Chick= $43.00

I added a wobbly behind the chick- so he moves!

I popped up the Scalloped Square frame, using Foam Adhesive Strips.

Stampin' Up! Floating & Fluttering Butterfly fun fold card!

 Check out my fun fold butterfly card!!

I used the 'Floating & Fluttering' Bundle

on page 61 in the January- June (Spring) Mini Catalog.

 

I made this for on my Iowa Inkers Team Swap that I hosted last month.

I love fun folds!

And this one is a little different.

This is what it looks like when opened up.

 The front flips up & the bottom folds down.

Can you tell by the photo that I embossed the Basic Black card stock

with the Meadow Moments Embossing Folder?

It has butterflies & leaves onto it.

I thought it combined perfectly with butterfly for my card.

 The butterflies are all on one stamp set.

So I just cut a strip of Bumblebee card stock, inked up the butterfly I needed & stamp it. 

I then used the Fluttering Dies & cut out it out.

When I cut it, it didn't cut it completely out.

It looked like this.

So I took my Paper Snips & just fussy cut in the places that it was connected.

So when I got it all cut out I had a single/sold butterfly- 

like the one on my card front!

I added Wink of Stella over the top of the butterfly to make him sparkle!

 

Humm....I just love black & yellow butterflies!

This is a totally Susie card & I love the way it turned out!

 

Here are the measurements & the supplies that you can make this card too!

card stock:

• Basic Black- 4 1/4 x 8 1/2'- score at 5 1/2"- fold for card base

Stampin' Up! Simple Stamping fun fold!

 

Last night I whipped up this fun card for today's post.

I was so excited, as I had just gotten my Sweet Little Valentine's Cards & More-

I cut the card in half on the center line that divides them= 3 1/4 x 4 1/4".

The Petal Pink side I left at 3 1/4 x 4 1/4".

The ombre/stripped side I cut to be 2 3/4 x 4".

 I cut a piece of Melon Mambo card stock to 4 1/4 x 8 1/2"- 

scored at 5 1/2" for the card base.

And I combined the 'Happy Thoughts' stamp set with it!

This is what these pieces turned into!!

Isn't it a pretty card!

So fun & so easy!!

I just love it!

This is what it looks like when opened up.

I turned this into a totally Susie card!
