Tickled Pink

Happy Friday!  It's Jeanne posting today.  I am in love with all the little pigs from the new Country Farm release.  This release features the most delightful dies.  Everything from Tractors to Chicks to Cows!  Each die is just full of awesome details and can be used for so many different occasions. 

I started this card by cutting out the Piggy w/ Crate from white cardstock and used Distress Oxide inks to color.

I colored the pig using the Tattered Rose and then used a sponge dauber to add some shading with the Vintage Photo.

I cut a panel 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 inches from floral designer paper.  Using the largest of the Nested Stitched Scallop Squares and Stitched Squares I cut out two white squares.  I used the banner from the Windows Slimline die to cut the striped banner.

I stamped my sentiment centered on the bottom of the plain stitched square and then ran it through an embossing folder to add texture and contrast with the scallops.

I mounted the floral paper on a card base and added the squares.  I tied a coordinating ribbon around the center.

My last step was to add the banner and pop up the pig using foam dots.

This little pig is super cute and can be used for many occasions.  I picked this sentiment since I could used it as a congratulatory or birthday card.

Be sure to visit the online store where the new release is on sale for a limited time.
