Brushstrokes Birthday Chick

The Brushstrokes die makes a fun background for the Birthday Chick.

Card Base: Cut Daffodil Delight 8 ½ X 11 paper in half widthwise. You now have two pieces 8 ½ X 5 ½ . Fold one of the pieces in half lengthwise for your card front. The card front now measures 4 ¼ X 5 ½.

Card Mat: Cut Basic White paper 4 X 5 1/4

Card Front: Die cut 8 brushstrokes pieces from print paper, I used the 6X6 Brights Designer Series paper. Attach the 8 brushstroke pieces evenly spaced on white card mat.

Stamp chick with cupcake on Basic White paper with Tuxedo Black Memento ink. Die cut with die from Birthday CHick dies. Color with Blends, I used Daffodil Delight, Poppy Parade, Flirty Flamingo, Bermuda Bay. I used Wink of Stella on the cupcake frosting.

From the Hippo & Friends dies, use the largest oval shape from Daffodil Delight and the next smaller size die from Bermuda Bay. Attach the Bermuda Bay piece to the Daffodil Delight piece. Attach these to the card front. Attach die cut chick with cupcake to Bermuda Bay die cut piece with Stampin dimensionals.

That’s it; you have finished your card front. For the inside of your card, cut a piece of Whisper White 4 X 5 ¼. Stamp a sentiment or write a note before attaching this piece inside your card.
