Birthday Piggy for the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Ink & Inpirations Blog Hop where we have a picture/colour challenge. I have opted to use the colours we have been given in combination with the Birthday Piggy Stamp set.

 

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the birthday piggy card, you will need:

Merry Merlot card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Favored Flowers dsp – 5½” by 3¾”
Flirty Flamingo card – 3⅝” by 2⅝”
Basic White card – 3½” by 2½”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside

 

The panel of Favored Flowers designer series paper (dsp) was glued to the Merry Merlot card base using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. A strip of Tear and Tape was adhered to the centre of the dsp and a loop of Evening Evergreen Open Weave Ribbon attached.

The sweet little piggy was stamped in Soft Suede ink onto the small panel of Basic White card.

I used the following Blends Alcohol Pens to colour in the image – Petal Pink, Flirty Flamingo, Soft Suede and Evening Evergreen. As we don’t have a Merry Merlot Blends Pen I used the Stamp ‘n Write Marker.

The stamped piece was then adhered to the Flirty Flamingo panel and the whole piece was placed onto the card front on Dimensionals with ribbon appearing above and below.
