Cutest little chickie ever!

Hi everyone!

I have such a cute card to share with you today and another one of my Seed Packet Templates (see below) for you to download.  I really had fun making this card and decided to make this little chickie waving a get well flag.

The little chick is from the 2016 Sale-a-bration catalogue and it's free with a $60 (Cdn) order.  The stamp set is called Honeycomb Happiness and it's just adorable...love, love, love it!

I stamped the baby chick with Black Stazon on watercolour paper, then I painted him with Crushed Curry using my aqua painter.  I totally painted outside the lines (because I love to and I can!) and then  carefully cut him out. I did feel bad cutting off his feet but I gave him a little nest of slivered Crumb Cake that I made by cutting fine strips, then scrumpled them up, creating the perfect little nest.

I cut the pieces for the sentiment and outlined them with my black marker using the wide tip on it's side and the banner was cut using the little banner punch.  I added the black dots with the fine tip of the same black marker. The flag pole is a narrow strip of the yellow cardstock outlined in black as well.

The sentiment is from the Greatest Greetings stamp set and I altered my stamp a bit, I can't think of when I would say 'get well sooner' so I carefully cut off the last two letters so my stamp now says 'get well soon' which works better for me!  I love the font in this greeting set...it just looks so cheerful!

Isn't this such a cute little baby chick!  Here's a close up of him, I coloured his beak with Tangerine Tango marker and added a little black to his eyes.  I just can't get enough of this little guy!
   

  I hope you like today's card!

The Sky is the Limit!

Hi everyone!

I have another quick card to share with you today.  I inked up the World Traveler embossing folder with Island Indigo ink, placed my card layer inside and ran it through my Big Shot.

Then I used a sponge dauber and Crumb Cake ink to rub on the continents and with a little of Island Indigo residue, the colour turned a pretty shade of green.  I love it when surprises happen! Next, I stamped the plane in Black Memento Ink and fussy cut it out.

I added some silver cording to the back of the plane on each side and then to the center of the sentiment so that it looks like the plane is flying a Happy Birthday banner.

Below is a close up of the propeller I made.  I covered a scrap of cardstock with tin foil (using double sided sticky tape) and cut out a circle using the smallest circle die. Then I cut into it so that it looks like a propeller...lol...well it sort of looks like a propeller! I attached the propeller to the plane with a small brad.  

To finish, I distressed the art piece layer on all sides, layered it on a black panel, then to the Island Indigo card base.

This card was fun, easy and I got lots of ink on my fingers too! What could be better!

I hope you're having a great day, thanks so much for stopping by to visit me!
