Third Birthday


I have a need for a 3rd birthday card for a child, and I used this Penny Black Piggy Love stamp because of the 3 balloons. I colored the image with Copics, adding clouds with Tumbled Glass ink. The frame was made with 2 Lil Inker stitched rectangle dies and a piece of Lawn Fawn plaid paper. The card base is Coastal Cabana by SU! The 3 was die cut with an I.O. number die and the sentiment is from a SSS stamp set.

I'll enter this into the Penny Black Saturday challenge which is "anything goes" optional love is in the air. Since those balloons are heart-shaped and this little piggy is floating in the air, I think I nailed it :)


Also entering into Seize the Birthday #182 - creatures great and small


Thanks for stopping by and I wish you a peaceful and fun weekend.

So piggies do fly... no seriously I think he's fab, bold and colourful exactly what a three year old likes. It's nice to add some personal thoughts that might not be obvious to everyone like the three balloons x
