Hi there! It's Andrea back to share a fun shaker card featuring the Big Piggie Hugs stamp from Picket Fence Studios.
This cute piggie and barrel were leftover from last week's card. I colored the images from Big Piggie Hugs with Copics, cut them out with the coordinating dies, and added white highlights.
That awesome background is from the Bright and Shiny Day Fabulously Glossy A2 Card Fronts pack, which I trimmed slightly. Using the Basic Die Cutting Set 1 Dies, I created frames from white cardstock and a yellow gingham paper from the Happy Gingham Fabulously Glossy A2 Card Fronts pack. I layered the two frames together and backed them with clear acetate.
I glued my colored images onto the background and placed some Pick Me sequin mix on top (Does anyone else struggle with how much filler to use for shaker cards? I either put too much or, in this case, not enough). I adhered my layered frames with foam tape and glued the shaker to a panel of green cardstock, which I affixed to a white cardbase.
To create my sentiment, I diecut orange cardstock a few times with the alphabet die from the Pinking Shear A2 Cover Plate Dies. After stacking the letters three times for dimension, I glued my sentiment to the acetate.

Hello there! It's Andrea back to share a fun card featuring the new Big Piggie Hugs stamp from Picket Fence Studios.
As with all of the designs by Yuzu Nook, the images from the Big Piggie Hugs set are so cute! They pair perfectly with the new Spring Gardening Fabulously Glossy A2 Card Fronts, and the A2 Trees Silhouette Cover Plate Die frames everything beautifully!
I stamped those fun images from Big Piggie Hugs in black and colored them with Copics. I diecut them with the coordinating dies and added white highlights with a gel pen.
I diecut the A2 Trees Silhouette Cover Plate Die from white cardstock and colored the diecut with Copics. I adhered the tree diecut with foam adhesive to one of the cardfronts from the Spring Gardening pack and affixed the panel to a white card.
I arranged my colored images onto my card, securing them with a combination of liquid adhesive and thin foam adhesive. I stamped a sentiment from Big Piggie Hugs, diecut it with the coordinating dies, and popped it up with dimensional adhesive.
Thanks for stopping by!

Hello fellow crafting friends. It's Bobbi Lemanski with a number of adorable piggies and one friendly gnome, named Fred! I'm sharing two cards with some special characters. I'm using the following new products from Picket Fence Studios:
Big Piggie Hugs stamps and coordinating dies
Friendly Fred the Gnome stamp set and coordinating dies
Fabulously Glossy A2 Card Fronts - Spring Gardeningl
Scene Building: A Tisket A Tasket Basket Die
Both of my cards below are 5" X 7" in size. The card bases are made from Neenah 80lb Classic Crest cardstock in Solar White.
Piggies in the Garden
For this card, I used a Fabulously Glossy A2 Card Fronts - Spring Gardening for the scene. This is a super easy way to create a fun look quickly. I make my cards, 5" X 7" so I cut the scene down to fit the top half of my card, leaving some needed white space below. It helps give the eyes a little rest since the scene it very full and active with these hard-working pigs!
Next, I stamped, colored and die cut all the cute pigs and veggies from the set, Big Piggie Hugs stamps and coordinating dies. I added some spots on the pigs for a little more character and uniqueness and colored their clothes to be "garden/farm" friendly. I stamped the sentiment - "homemade for you" - along with a little caterpillar on the side to complete this card.
Fred the Friendly Gnome
I used another scene builder background from the Fabulously Glossy A2 Card Fronts - Spring Gardening set. I added Fred, the gnome using the Friendly Fred the Gnome stamp set and coordinating dies. I colored the gnome, mushrooms and flowers using various Copic Sketch markers. For the mushrooms, I used R14, R22, R27, R29, and R46. For the basket, Scene Building: A Tisket A Tasket Basket Die. I used E59, E57, E55 and E53 to color the basket.
I added all the goodies, flowers and mushrooms to the basket. Finally, I added a sweet sentiment from the same set to complete this 5" X 7" card.
