I just ordered the Welcome Easter Stamp Set recently and it is so adorable I had to make this Welcome Easter Yellow Chick Card. It’s actually a great stamp set that is not just for Easter, as you can see from the stamp set photo! It’s even got a greeting in the stamp set for a new baby and a friend. You could certainly make a lot of cute baby cards and projects with this stamp set, so don’t look at it as only for Easter.
In making this card, I wanted to use the new, beautiful vellum paper, available FREE during these last few weeks of Sale-A-Bration! It’s one of the new products available as the 2nd release during Sale-A-Bration. It is called the So Very Vellum Specialty Designer Series Paper. It comes in three colors: Pool Party, Purple Posy, and Soft Sea Foam.
I just used a card base of Whisper White and added a layer of the Pool Party vellum, sponging it on the back with Multipurpose Liquid Glue so the adhesive wouldn’t show through.
The chick is stamped in Memento Ink and colored in with Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends Markers and the beak and feet in Pumpkin Pie markers. It’s so fun to color with these Stampin’ Blends Markers! I just love to do it! I also colored in some green grass just for fun using the Granny Apple Green markers.
The chick was then cut out with the Stitched Shapes Dies and layered on a scalloped circle die-cut in Daffodil Delight. Then I thought it would be fun to use the Whisper White 5/8″ Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon placed back and forth on the back. I popped this piece up with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
The greeting is stamped and then layered on a Stitched Rectangle Die in Daffodil Delight. It is just glued on with Multipurpose Liquid Glue or you can use Snail Adhesive.
That’s as easy as it is to make this Welcome Easter Card with the cute yellow chick on the front! Try your hand at making this simple card!
Remember, Sale-A-Bration ends March 31 so what with all the health news out there, don’t forget if you want to treat yourself to a Sale-A-Bration product!
