Card Details:
The card base is Thick Whisper White Cardstock Cut to 4.25 in x 11 in and scored / folded at 5.5 in. Shimmery White Cardstock, which is watercolor friendly was cut to 3.5 in x 5.5 in. I applied color with an Aqua Painter to create the look of the sun, sky and dirt. Prior to adhering to the base of the card with Stampin' Dimensionals, I mirrored the color of the sun, sky and dirt onto the card base.
The piggy was stamped two times with Basic Black Archival Ink. Once on Whisper White Cardstock and the other on Water Color Paper. The image on the Whisper White Cardstock was colored in with a Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker and then cropped with a Paper Snips to fit behind the piggy to represent a shadow. The Piggy was colored with an Aqua Painter and Blushing Bride Classic Ink and then adhered to the shadow image with Stampin' Dimensionals.
The sentiments are from This Little Piggy Stamp Set, Available to order June 1st. The flagged end on the You Make Me Happy Sentiment was quickly created with the Banner Tripple Punch. The Love You was cropped out with the Big Shot and the Heart Framelit from the Wood Crates Framelits, also available to order June 1st.
Blushing Bride is the perfect color for Piggy. Daffodil Delight was used for the sun and flower, Soft Sky for the sky and Crumb Cake for the mud / dirt. The entire card was colored with an Aqua Painter.
A piece of DSP from the Wood Textures Designer Series Paper Stack was used for the crate. The Crate was created by slightly modifying one side of a crate. I snipped a 1/4 inch border around a side of the crate and adhered it to the card by adding a few strips of Fast Fuse Adhesive. The extra adhesive is hidden well by the crate.
