| Hey, Chick! Look at this plume! |
Look at that plume! Isn’t it a hoot! I think this is my favorite chick!
Stampin’ Up! really did an outstanding job with product coordination this time around. When I saw the Urban Underground Suite and the Hey, Chick Sale-A-Bration set, my mind clicked the two together immediately! (I think I already shared how much I really want to have urban chickens!) Here’s a bullet list for you!
- The hexagon embossing folder creates the perfect illusion of chicken wire. The folder can be inked up and used as a stamp, or you can do what I did here and ink it up a little more and emboss it for texture and a little more color.
- The hexagon die from the builder framelits made a great frame for the chick and provides coordination with the background.
- The little smileys from, Nailed It, are make a nice accent for the, “have a happy day!” sentiment!
- The “sentiment die” from the Builder Framelits is a perfect fit for the sentiment from Hey, Chick.
- The Urban Underground Specialty Designer Paper had a fantastic color combo and this Delightful Dijon piece with the x’s was perfect. It made me think of all the cuts I’ve gotten from the top of chicken wire (okay, not the happiest of thoughts, but I turned it into a good thing!)
I used the watercolor pencils to color in the plume, blending two colors together to get the dijon color and lighter highlights. Here’s a tip: just because they are called Watercolor Pencils does not mean that you have to watercolor with them! This card idea came together so well that I am busting my buttons!
For your convenience, I have listed most of the supplies that I used creating this card below.
