Aaaah sweet little piggy. This card is a request from a friend at work, she wanted a 21st card with a pig on and green for her son's girlfriend, a strange request you might think lol. After scouring the net I came across this little beauty from Phindys place called Piggy Balloons. I have coloured with promarkers and embellished with GD, I used tim holtz distress ink for the sky, then matted to some bright green then green blue CS. The DP is from a walk in the park. I added a bright green border and attached aome green grossgrain ribbon and tied in a simple bow then added another simple bow to the other side in a different green.The sentiment strips are from pink petticoat, the 21 today sentiment is from ladybugcraftsink, I have used a sakura glaze pen and added GD to this to give a raised effect, finished off with some green pearls and the 'Emily' sentiment is computer generated. I hope she likes I wasn't sure to start with but I really do love this card.
