Sparkle

Hello friends, thanks so much for stopping by.  Today I have a quick post to share - and that means a quick and easy card to share with you - what is not to love about this flying pig - I just love it and all the meaning that often comes with...'and pigs can fly!' 


I have used a printed image for the pig and coloured it using Chameleon Pens - there is a little sparkle added to the tips of the wings, hooves and snout but it was impossible to capture it -no matter how hard I tried - sorry!  The image has been fussy cut/hand cut out using scissors.

The background has been created by stamping a frame using an image and AALL & Create set by Tracy Evans -I love her stamps! It has been coloured using Chameleon Art Pens and the inside of the frame randomly sponged using Imagine Radiant Neon ink in Electric Pink, Electric Orange and Electric Yellow.  The card front has been embossed using the Spellbinders Seth Apter Em-bossing Fold'ers Lazer Beams 5 x 7 in Single Sided and popped up onto a slightly bigger pre-cut card base using Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L 3D Foam Squares.

The sentiment has been stamped onto white card stock using Imagine Memento Ink in Tuxedo Black. and cut/embossed usin Nestabilities Scored and Pierced Rectangles Etched Die using the Platinum Die Cutting Machine and popped up onto the card front using Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L 3D Foam Squares.  The flying pig has been popped up below the sentiment.

  15. What a cute card. Thank you for joining us at Word Art Wednesday. I would like to share with you God's Word in John 8:12 which says, "When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” God's Word is timely and timeless. Have a blessed weekend!
