Mount the Rays Of Light stamp on Block F. Leave the stamp rubber side up on your work surface and press the open Crushed Curry Ink Pad all over it. If you get some ink in the open circle, don't worry, it will be covered in a later step.
Leave the stamp inky rubber side up on your work surface. Carefully place the large Daffodil Delight rectangle on top of the inky stamp . Place a piece of Grid Paper on top of the cardstock/inky rubber and rub firmly all over. Remove the Grid Paper and the inked up cardstock rectangle.
Adhere the stamped Daffodil Delight rectangle to the center of the 4" x 5-1/4" Pumpkin Pie rectangle.
Adhere the matted Rays of Light stamped cardstock to the front of the Real Red card so the open circle is on the lower right side.
Pick out the solid, half sunburst die from the Hey Chuck Dies. Put it on top of one side of the 2-1/2" x 3" Pumpkin Pie rectangle on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. Run through the machine. Repeat on the other side of the rectangle so you have two half sunburst cut outs.
Adhere the half sunburst cut outs over the circle on the front of the card making a full sunburst.
Mount the skateboard image from the Hey Chuck Set on Block G. Ink it up with the Pecan Pie Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the Pecan Pie rectangle.
Pick out the matching skateboard die from the Hey Chuck Dies. Put it on top of the image on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine so it is centered over the image. Run through the machine.
Use Multipurpose Liquid Glue or Fine-Tip Glue Pen to adhere the skateboard cut out to the front of the card so it is centered over the bottom edge of the Pumpkin Pie cardstock sunburst as shown.
Mount the crowing rooster image from the Hey Chuck Set on Block D. Ink it up with the Tuxedo Black Memento Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the white rectangle.
Pick out the matching crowing rooster die from the Hey Chuck Dies. Put it on top of the image on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine so it is centered over the image. Run through the machine.
Place the crowing rooster cut out on some Grid Paper to protect your work surface. You need to make sure that you protect your work surface with paper as the Stampin' Blends Markers do bleed through.
Use the Light and Dark Pumpkin Pie Stampin' Blends to color in the rooster's body and wings.
Use the Light and Dark Real Red Stampin' Blends to color in the rooster's tail feathers, head, neck, tongue, cockscomb, and feathers at the tops of his legs.
Use the Light and Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin' Blends to color in the rooster's beak, feet, and legs.
Use the Light Crumb Cake Stampin' Blends to color in all the areas around the rest of the image so they aren't stark white. Make sure to leave the eye white though.
Use Mini Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere the colored rooster cut out to the front of the card as shown so he appears to be standing on the skateboard and is centered over the Pumpkin Pie cardstock sunburst.
Mount the sentiment of choice from the Hey Chuck Set on Block G. Ink it up with the Tuxedo Black Memento Ink Pad. Stamp it on the remaining strip of Pumpkin Pie cardstock.
Use Paper Snips Scissors to cut the words apart as desired.
Use Mini Stampin' Dimensionals and Multipurpose Liquid Glue or Fine-Tip Glue Pen to adhere the word strip cut outs to the front of the card at a slight angle in the upper left corner.
Use the mini spatula on the Take Your Pick to carefully peel up 3 different sizes of Daffodil Delight dots from the sheet of Glossy Dots Assortment making sure that you get the adhesive backings as well. Adhere them randomly to the card front around the rooster.
