This Little Piggy is Tickled Pink
September 27, 2017
I love the This Little Piggy stamp set, but we haven't made a pig card in class yet. We'll be making this card in October.
I'm not much of a pink person, so this might be a treat for some of my ladies. I hope they like it.
The card base is Blushing Bride measuring 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 and scored an folded at 4 1/4.
The Very Vanilla layer is 3 3/4 x 5. If you want to save on paper, stamp the pig in the center of this layer. Cut out using the Layered Circles Framelits. In this sample, I used Tuxedo Black. I think it would look better in Basic Gray. We'll do that for class.
The next layer is Smoky Slate. The measurements are 3 5/8 x 4 7/8. Use the Polka Dot Basics Embossing Folder. Add a little something inside each of the circles. On this card I used the stamp in Daisy Delight. The stamp has three designs on it. Just ink the one on the end. This is stamped in Basic Gray.
The banner is from the Bundle of Love Specialty Designer Series Paper. The measurements for this is 1 3/4 x 5. Use the Triple Banner Punch to notch the end.
Stamp the pig again on a piece of Blushing Bride and fussy cut it out. Glue on top of the original image. Use the Blushing Bride, So Saffron, and Wild Wasabi markers from the Subtles Stampin' Write Markers to color in the rest of the image. Use the brown in the Watercolor Pencils and a Blender Pen for the dirt at the bottom.
Frame this on a scalloped circle in Blushing Bride again using the Layered Circles Framelits. Use dimensionals to adhere the circles.
The sentiment is from the stamp set Fabulous Flamingo. The strip is 3/4 inches wide. The end is notched. Just glue this on top of the words that are already there. Again, I think Basic Gray would look better. I did add a mini dimensional to the end of this banner to make it the same as the circles.
The inside sentiment is from Remarkable You. Add another pig to the inside. Stamp on Blushing Bride and cut it out.
I am tickled pink at how this card turned out. I had someone special in mind, but I can't share that yet. Maybe if they read this they'll know.
