I have made something a little different for me. This is an easel card using a super cute piggy image by Crissy Armstrong called
I Smell Spring. Rather than use the image as it is I decided to cut the piggy out and mount him on an easel card using some paper and dies to create a sort of farmyard scene. I have used oodles of Whimsy Stamps products on this card (5 items I think!). What do you think...? Told you it was different for me ;-)
A close up of the main part of the card...
A sideways view...
A close up of the piggy, can you see I've added muddy splodges on his face...
A close up of my new button stamp and die, love these...
I love, love, love this sentiment (reason why I added mud marks to the pig's face!)...
Phew, sorry for all the photos but I don't normally make such detailed cards, lol ;-)
Supplies:
Image -
I Smell Spring coloured with Promarkers & Flexmarkers
Real friends sentiment - from the
Funny Friend Sayings set
Button sentiment - from the
