Hi Friends!
I am sharing another
quick card this morning using the retired Hey, Chick stamp set from Stampin’ Up!
I have a personal goal
to try to create a card for each of the over 800 sketches at Splitcoaststampers
and this card uses the SC796 Sketch for the layout.
I am also
participating with the SUO Challenges #255 “Designers Choice” Challenge along
with the Simon Says Monday “Happy Birthday!” Challenge.
I hope you have had
the chance to check out the above challenge sites, wonderful inspiration from all!
To create this card:
De-static a piece of white
cardstock with an embossing powder tool, ink the chicken images from Hey, Chick
with a black archival ink (leaving plenty of space for the circle die cuts), apply
clear embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool.
Once the embossing
has cooled, watercolor the images with water-based markers and fussy cut the
crazy haired chicken, set aside.
Die cut the two
chicken images using a set of stitched circle dies and die cut another circle
for mounting the crazy haired image.
Emboss a piece of
white cardstock with a woodgrain embossing folder, trim and mount onto black cardstock,
trim and mount onto a white card base.
De-static scrap
pieces of black cardstock with an embossing powder tool, ink the sentiments
from Hey, Chick using Versamark™ ink, apply white embossing powder and heat set
with a heat tool.
Adhere the circles
onto the card front, the top circle directly, the second circle with one layer
of dimensional foam (or chipboard) and the third circle with two layers of
chipboard.
Add the sentiments
with chipboard along with the fussy cut chicken.
Use a clear glitter
pen to add shimmer to the purple hair and the red combs to finish off the card.

Great to see this set again - it was a great favourite - wow what a challenge you’ve set yourself - I may have to pop over to SCS and have a look myself - what would I do with all those cards though? Thanks for joining us at SUOnly challenge this week.
