This Little Piggy Says….

Create your Little Piggy says Christmas card for the young and the young at heart.  It’s sure to bring a smile to someone’s face.  And, we all need to smile.  Have you ever smiled at a perfect stranger and received a  smile back.  I do this quite often and sometimes we even chat.  At this time of year it’s always makes one feel good when you spread a little cheer.

I fell in love with this stamp set as there are so many images that will help you create cute cards.  This set is great for Thank You, Birthday, I Love Your and Encouragement cards.  Just change up the images and the sentiments for the different cards.

Recipe

Stamps: This Little Piggy, Teeny Tiny Wishes, More Merry Messages.

Ink/Marker: Memento Tuxedo Black, Cherry Cobber.

Paper: Whisper White, Cherry Cobbler, Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer, Merry Little Christmas Designer Series Paper, Be Merry Designer Series Paper.

Accessories: Big Shot, Banner Collections Framelits, Sparkle Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, 2” Circle Punch, 1” Circle Punch, 1-1/4” Circle Punch, Hat  Builder Punch, Stampin’ Blends: Light Pink Pirouette, Dark Pink Pirouette, Smoky Slate Light, Crumb Cake Light and the Stampin’ Blends Color Lifter.

To color the Little Piggy, I used the new Stampin’ Blends.  Because there are only 2 tones(light and dark) for each of the colors, it is easy to get the shading down for this little guy/girl. Shade around the pig with the Smoky Slate Light Blends.  This treatment makes the image pop off the page. Color the dirt with Light Crumb Cake Light Blends, because pigs are known to like the dirt.

Use the Hat Builder punch, Dazzling Diamonds Glitter Paper and a piece of Be Merry Designer Series Paper for the hat..
