Easter Chick

Greetings to you all on this beautiful morning in Palm Coast, Florida.  I wish you a Happy Easter today! 

Here is a fun and cute Easter card for a child or a child at heart.  My inspiration came from this card.   All supplies used are © Stampin' Up!®.  This is an interactive card.  The top half of the egg shell pivots open and closed on a brad.  Isn't that fun?  The egg is cut from one of the Delicate Dots Designer Series Papers, using the Ovals Die and the Big Shot.  The stamp set is called A Good Egg.  I stamped the chick in Basic Black Classic Ink on Barely Banana paper and trimmed the top half of the little guy, since that was all that would be showing.  I colored his beak using a Pumpkin Pie Stampin' Write marker.  The decorative band is stamped on Whisper White card stock with Basic Black ink.  The borders are colored with a Certainly Celery marker and the dots with a Bashful Blue marker.  I dabbed the dots with a 2-way Glue Pen and dusted with Dazzling Diamonds Glitter.  I cut the egg in half and attached the band to the upper half.  The chick is glued behind the lower half and it's all attached to a piece of Whisper White card stock that has been layered with Certainly Celery and Bashful Blue card stocks.  A blue Soft Subtle brad is added through all layers, using a paper piercer and mat pad, to create the pivot point.  I used my Paper Snips to cut along a piece of Certainly Celery card stock to make some "grass".  A piece of Bashful Blue Taffeta ribbon is wrapped around all the layers and tied in a knot.  Happy Easter is stamped in Basic Black before the focal image is added.  Stampin' Dimensionals adhere it to the card base.  You can't help but smile when you see this in person.  Not only is this a cute Easter card, but wouldn't it make a cute new baby card, too?  I hope you like it!  Please let me know what you think.  Your comment lets me know that someone is reading...LOL.  Thanks.
