Technique Tuesday Animal House Giveaway

Hello everyone!!! Technique Tuesday has a fabulous giveaway going on on their blog right now! They are showcasing their super cute farm animal stamp sets.

Take a look at the stamp set I used:

Parker & Penny Pig Stamp Set

I used the Parker & Penny Stamp Set to create this clean and simple card. This set is full of funny sentiments with two cute pigs, Parker and Penny.

Here’s how I created this card:

Die cut the card base and circle using Papertrey Ink Noted Scalloped Square Die Collection.

Stamp the pig and sentiment using the MISTI.

Use Tombow’s Irojiten Colored Pencils, Rainforest to color the pig. I used Volume 1: P1 Orchid Pink and P2 Coral Pink.

Attach the circle die cut to the card base using 3M Foam Tape.

Do you want to participate in the giveaway? Here’s how:

  1. All you have to do is head on over to the Animal House Category on Technique Tuesday website and pick your favorite set.
  2. Then comment on this blog post for a chance to win that stamp set by June 29th.

Yes, super simple and easy!! They will announce the winner on their blog on July 1st, 2018.

Good Luck and I would love to hear which set is your favorite.

Thanks for stopping by!

Look at that glossy balloon!!  It adds so much to the card.

Lets take a closer look at the die cut “Congrats” from Penny Black’s Creative Dies – Hooray.

This card was super easy to create.  I’m going to tell you how.

1. I cut my card base to an A2 size card (4.25 x 5.50) scored at 4.25.

2. I used Distress Inks Evergreen Bough and Salty Ocean to blend the colors across the center of the card.

3. I stamped my party pig with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink because I was using Copic Markers to color in pig.

Copics used: Pig (R20, R22); Pig eyes (BG00); Pig Mouth ( W5, W7); Balloon (BG11, BG34); Party Hat (YG03, YG17, YG67)

4. I added glossy accents to the balloon.

5. I die cut the Congrats 3 times and stacked them on top of each other with  Tombow Multipurpose Adhesive to give the word some dimension, then adhered the word to the center of my card.

6. I added foam adhesive to the back of my pig and balloon and adhered it right above my die cut sentiment.

7. I attached my card panel with foam adhesive and that was it!!

Soooo, what do you think?  Now its your turn!!
