Here a chick ..... there a chick

I just can't get enough of this "Hey Chick" Sale-a-bration set - it is so much fun to play with!  The other day I showed you how I made a chicken wire background - just by pushing my cardstock base down on the Hexagon folder - and I loved the look.  But this next card uses the dynamic folder by inking it up and running it through the Big Shot - you still get that same chicken wire look - but with the hexagon's embossed!
You can see it even better below.  For chicken wire, you need to be sure you ink the side that just has the little lines raised up.  If you do the other side - you'll get an entirely different look! 
How adorable is that!!??!!
Here's the envelope below - you all know I hate naked envelopes - and how fun would it be to see this in your stack of mail?
 My original design had the sentiment stamped on some Vanilla Satin ribbon.  It stamped on beautifully - but by a short time later it had bled (see my proto-type below)!  I love the idea - but might have to seal the ribbon before stamping on it next time.  So I switched it up to cardstock!
 So - do you need this set yet????  You can get it FREE with any online order of $50 or more (pre-S&H and tax) at my website - www.stampingwithmaureen.stampinup.net
