June Birthday

                                                                   Hi Everyone, happy June!

It's always a celebration when my favorite pig makes an appearance on a card! Birthday Party Pig was colored and fussy cut, and set aside as I created the background for him.  

I dry embossed the top, stamped the bottom portion of my paper using the Interlocking Circle Background stamp, and chose the June Birthday Greeting, to make the card more personal for the recipient.  The new Push Pin stamp makes for the best little embellishment, so I stamped it in the corner, and then fussy cut the head and attached it to the card. 

Some ribbon was used to cover up the seam, and I attached that partyin' pig to the card.  It still wasn't celebratory enough for me, so out came my gems that I attached to the centers of those circles.  Now it finally seemed complete ;-)

I had this Friendly Flower Frog , which was colored and fussy cut for a previous project that never came together. Not being a person who can toss anything away, I decided on a simple embossed background that I added some chalk and glitter glue to, in an attempt to match up the flowers on the frog. 

I attached the Have I Toad You Greeting, and added the frog with some dimensional foam tape.  These types of cards are some of my favorites for a card stash.  When the time comes, the inside can be stamped with just about anything and it will fit the outside sentiment!

Thanks for stopping by!
