Challenge No24 at Crafty Friends Challenge Blog

Good Morning Everyone...

I really enjoyed making my Birthday card for the challenge over at Crafty Friends Challenge Blog today.... For more details about our wonderful sponsors, please see  further down this post.

The theme of our challenge is

ANIMALS / BIRDS


My birthday card has been made for a very special friend of mine and she absolutely adores little pigs, so when I saw this fabulous cute image from Pickled Potpourri Designs (PPD) I thought of Julie straight away. I would like to say thanks to PPD for letting me have this image to use for my card :o)  I have decoupaged the little pigs to give my card more depth and interest. Don't they look cute in a line.  I added some little pink star gemstones to the largest piggie's ears as earings and then put more gemstones around my card for additional bling/sparkle.  The February Birthday Circle sentiment is really good, as I could circle the actual date in February and make my card more personal - another thanks here for Inky Impressions who let me have this image too.

Pig Digital Stamp: Pickled Potpourri Designs, Playful Piggies
