Still Got It Chicken! – Spellbinders November Small Die of the Month
This month’s Spellbinders Small Die of the Month, Still Got It Chicken, is absolutely adorable! I love the personality of this fun little chicken, especially when paired with the Clear Stamp & Die of the Month and its collection of hilarious sentiments. Together, these sets make creating a playful birthday or just-because card so much fun!

Card Details
I began by assembling the chicken. The body, wings and head were die cut from white cardstock, while the accessories were cut from patterned paper. I found a fun plaid pattern that I thought coordinated perfectly for her scarf and purse. The comb, wattle, banner sentiment, shoes and purse highlights were die cut from Pomegranate Colorwheel Cardstock.
Of course, what would this fashionable chicken be without a glass of wine? I die cut the glass from vellum and added a little Pomegranate cardstock for the wine. She’s certainly ready to celebrate!
For the card base, I trimmed a panel of Blush Colorwheel Cardstock to 4” x 5¼” and adhered it to an A2-sized black cardstock base.
I stamped the wonderfully fun sentiment, “Spring Chicken Status: Pending,” from the Clear Stamp & Die of the Month in black ink along the bottom of the blush panel.
The chicken was popped up with foam squares and positioned just above the sentiment. To finish the card, I added the red banner sentiment above the chicken, using a black foam die cut to give it a little extra dimension.
Closing Thoughts
I absolutely love how this card turned out! This little chicken has so much personality, and the combination of the two November club sets makes for a wonderfully fun card. The sentiments are guaranteed to bring a smile, and I think this one is perfect for anyone who appreciates a little humour with their birthday wishes. After all, we’re never too old to be a spring chicken!
