Hello Honeycomb Happiness

You have to admit that this little chick is adorable!

He is among the Sale-A-Bration products that you can choose for free with any $50 order placed through March 31st.

The stamp set is called Honeycomb Happiness and it includes a balloon, an ice cream cone and various greetings.

When I saw this little chick I instantly thought of making an Easter card but then I realized this image could be used for so much more.

The base of my card is Melon Mambo which coordinates with the colors in the "It's My Party" Designer Series Paper Stack. I layered a piece of Sahara Sand cardstock measuring 4" x 5 1/4" and used the Large Polka Dot Embossing Folder for texture.

I wanted the chick to appear to be laying in a nest so I wrapped several layers of Linen Thread under him. Since the word 'egg' is part of the sentiment I decided to create one using the XL Oval Punch. I cut the oval in half then created ragged edges with my Paper Snips. I sponged the edges with Sahara Sand ink for some dimension.

The "It's My Party Enamel Dots" coordinate with the designer paper providing that little extra 'dot' of color.

I considered making this into a baby card (and I still might do that!) or I could have used this exact same card as a house warming greeting or a welcome home card. This chick is so cute, it could easily carry any sentiment.

It's time to order the February Studio Stamps in the Mail which will include the Party Wishes stamp set and Party Punch Pack plus the pre-cut supplies to create 8 cards; 2 each of the 4 designs shown. Details are HERE.
