I shared the sketch on the right with my newsletter recipients last Wednesday for my What’s Up In the World of Stampin’ Hoot publication.
Today I am sharing a card that I created using that sketch as my inspiration.
I love that little piggy from the Joyful Life Stamp Set on page 63 of the Stampin’ Up! July – December Mini (Holiday) Catalog!

Here’s a little time-lapse video sharing how I colored the little piggy with Stampin’ Blends!
Any Harry Potter fans out there? This piggy makes me think of him with the scarf and glasses.

Begin by using a Stampin’ Up! Paper Trimmer to cut a piece of Basic White Thick to 4 1/4 x 11. Score and fold at 5 1/2.
Adhere a 3 x 4 1/8 piece of Basic White Cardstock to a 4 x 4 1/4 piece of Pattern Party Designer Series Paper as shown with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
Use the brush end of a Basic Black Stampin’ Marker to add splatter.
Use scissors to cut the Black & White 1/4″ Gingham Ribbon in half. Wrap around the layer and secure with a bow.
Adhere to the card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Crop a piece of Basic Black Cardstock with the 2 7/8 Layering Circles die. Use a Paper Trimmer to cut 1/8 off an edge. Adhere to the card as shown with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Stamp the sentiment in Versamark Ink onto a piece of Basic White Cardstock. Cover with Black Basic Stampin’ Emboss Powder. Tap to remove excess and set with a Heat Tool. Trim to 5/8 x 2 1/4. Flag the end as shown with Paper Snips.
Stamp the piggy in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink onto Basic White Cardstock. Color with the following Stampin’ Blends (Light and Dark):
- Petal Pink
- Balmy Blue
- Flirty Flamingo
- Cajun Craze
- Mossy Meadow
Trim closely with Paper Snips. Adhere as shown (+ the sentiment) with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Embellish with the Matte Black Dots.
Adhere a 5 3/4 x 2 1/2 piece of Pattern Party Designer Series Paper to the flap of a Basic White Medium Envelope with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
