Hey!
Sharing
this adorable party pals card with you today courtesy of Hello Bluebird’s “Pig Day” stamp/die set! This is such a fun, happy set and the critters are so well
drawn – just like all of the Hello Bluebird images. 😊
I wanted
this card to have several layers and I started by creating the party scene with
MFT’s Stitched Dome STAX Die-namics. I taped the two largest dies together to
form a frame and then ran it through my die cutting machine several times on
both light yellow and white card stock. I glued/stacked 3 yellow frames
together and set it aside. I then lightly blended the blue sky with distress
oxide ink onto one of the white dome die cuts. On the second white dome, I
blended greens at the bottom and die cut the grass border – I glued this down
to the sky dome. The images were stamped, colored and die cut. I glued/stacked
multiple die cuts together for the pig and balloons. I wanted the little peep
to have her own party hat so I drew a teeny tiny one, colored/cut it and glued
it to her head. The party hats were finished with tiny jewels for a bit of
sparkle. Once my scene was arranged, I glued all of the pieces into place or
popped them up with foam tape.
I didn’t
have a plaid that really matched my color scheme for this card and so I created
one in PowerPoint! It’s really easy to design your own plaids and here’s what
mine looked like:
I adhered
the printed plaid to the front of a 5.5” x 5.5” top-folding card front. I then
lightly blended a blue sky onto a piece of white card stock measuring 3.75” x
5.5”, backed it with craft foam and glued it to the top of the card front. The sentiment
was stamped using the MISTI and the dome scene was glued to the sky panel. The
card was finished off with a generous application of Wink of Stella on all of
the images. This card just makes me smile!
Thanks
