For today’s card, I was challenged to design “anything with wheels.” Well, guess who has wheels…… This Birthday Piggy!  After stamping Piggy in Memento Black Ink on Basic White Cardstock, I colored her riding her scooter in five colors of Stampin’ Blends: Petal Pink, Ivory, Smoky Slate, Polished Pink, and Flirty Flamingo.

Framed Birthday Piggy

 

After coloring, I used a Playful Piggy Die for cutting. If you weren’t fortunate enough to receive this die set during Sale-a-bration, you will need to fussy cut, or leave her flat. But, she’s happy riding her scooter in either position.

 

Piggy’s background is Fitting Florets Designer Paper, 4″ X 5 1/4″, with an oval cut from the middle with a Framed Florets Die.  After cutting the oval, I glued the designer paper to a Thick Basic White card base. Then, I cut another oval from Thick Basic White Cardstock, and placed the frame on Dimensionals, along with Piggy.

 

The Fitting Florets Designer Paper and Framed Florets Dies are from an early release collection.

I was inspired by The Paper Players.
