Quick Card Project

Looking for a quick card using supplies you may already have on hand? This little chickee is made using just a couple of punches and is both quick and fun!

Here's our step by step instructions:

1. Cut and score card background from blue cardstock.

2. Attach Fancy Pants Designs patterned paper to front. We stitched the sides, but it would be just as cute to leave unfinished or use a stitch pattern stamp to duplicate the effect.

3. To make chickee: Punch large circle from yellow cardstock. Punch four heart shapes from dark orange cardstock. Place three hearts behind the top of the circle with the tops peeking out. Cut the last heart in half, with the bottom being a triangle for the beak and the top becoming wings. Add two thin strips of green cardstock for legs and a button for the eye.

4. Stamp sentiment with blue ink on white cardstock strip. Tie ribbon in knot and glue to card.
