P layful card using Stampin' Up! products.
Project Recipe
Cut cardstock pieces to the following sizes using a Stampin' Trimmer:
- card from Old Olive Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" from Soft Sky Cardstock
- 2-1/2" square from Old Olive Cardstock
- 2-1/2" square from Whisper White Cardstock
- 2-1/2" square from Peekaboo Peach Cardstock
- 1-1/2" square from Peekaboo Peach Cardstock
Mount the sitting pig image from the This Little Piggy Set on Block D. Ink it up with the Crumb Cake Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the Whisper White square. Leave the stamp on the block.
Re-ink the stamp with the Crumb Cake Ink Pad and stamp it in the center of the larger Peekaboo Peach square.
Mount the "Loves You" sentiment from the This Little Piggy Set on Block A. Ink it up with the Crumb Cake Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the smaller square of Peekaboo Peach Cardstock.
Pick out the smooth square framelit from the Layering Squares Framelits that cuts out a smooth square that is 1-7/8" wide. Place the stamped pig image on the Whisper White square on the Cutting Pad on top of the Magnetic Platform on the Big Shot. Place the smooth square framelit on top so the image is centered. You will cut off a bit of the pig's ears, but that is okay. Place another Cutting Pad on top and run through the Big Shot.
Pick out the scalloped square framelit from the Layering Squares Framelits that cuts out a scalloped square that is 2-1/4" wide. Place the Old Olive square on the Cutting Pad on top of the Magnetic Platform on the Big Shot. Place the scalloped square framelit on top. Place another Cutting Pad on top and run through the Big Shot.
Pick out the smooth square framelit from the Layering Squares Framelits that cuts out a smooth square that is 1" wide. Place the sentiment stamped square of Peekaboo Peach Cardstock on the Cutting Pad on top of the Magnetic Platform on the Big Shot. Place the smooth square framelit on top so it is centered. Place another Cutting Pad on top and run through the Big Shot. Keep both the sentiment square and the hollow square it was cut out of.
Squeeze the lid of the Crumb Cake Ink Pad to get a pool of ink in the lid. Open the pad but leave the lid exposed. Use a Blender Pen to pick up some ink from the puddle in the lid and color in the dirt under the pig stamped on the white cardstock square. Pick up more ink from the pad lid as needed. Remember to stroke the Blender Pen in one direction only. If you go back and forth, then the card stock could start to pill and tear.
Use a Blender Pen to pick up some ink from the puddle in the lid of the Crumb Cake Ink Pad and color some mud patches randomly onto the Peekaboo Peach pig. Pick up more ink from the pad lid as needed. Remember to stroke the Blender Pen in one direction only. When you are done coloring, scribble the Blender Pen back and forth on scratch paper until no more color is coming off.
Use the Old Olive Marker to color in the grass on either side of the pig stamped on the white square.
Adhere the colored white square pig image to the center of the Old Olive scalloped square.
Carefully cut out the Peekaboo Peach pig using Paper Snips. Adhere the peach pig over the top of the pig image on the white square.
Without adhering anything, lay the squares on the Soft Sky rectangle as shown. Mount the set of three hearts image from the This Little Piggy Set on Block A. Ink them up with the Peekaboo Peach Ink Pad. Stamp first on Grid Paper to make sure you have the hearts oriented the right way up. If so, re-ink the hearts with the Peekaboo Peach Ink Pad and stamp them in the center of the hollow square.
Once you are happy with the stamping of the hearts, adhere the stamped Soft Sky rectangle to the front of the Old Olive card.
Use the Fine-Tip Glue Pen to adhere the hollow square so it is centered over the stamped hearts at an angle.
Adhere the other two squares to the card front using SNAIL Adhesive so they overlap each other a bit and are at slight angles.
Cut a 3" piece of Old Olive 1/4" Stitched-Edge Ribbon. Tie a half knot in the center. Trim the ends. Adhere to the front of the card between the pig and sentiment square corners using a Mini Glue Dot.
