Hey There Birthday Chick! Even if you are not a chick fan, these accessories are stinkin’ cute, don’t you think? The Hey Birthday Chick is in the new annual catalog, along with dies, but is not a bundle. The Hey Chick Bundle is only available this month.

I think I might be partial to the Hey Chick accessories…..what about you? Here is another card from my friend Cherie. I told you we had a fun weekend crafting. Now if only we did a little more crafting and a lot less talking, we would have gotten more than two cards done! LOL Oh well, after all crafting is 75% social. Right?
