HAPPY FRIDAY!!!
Woot! Woot!
I have a fancy fun-fold card for you today. I entered a challenge from my Upline, Linda Bauwin. She always gets my creative juices going because she offers free product as a prize.
Who doesn't like to win free stuff???!!!
I knew from the moment I saw this barn door bundle that I was going to HAVE to have it 😉
It's right up my alley. But, what's a barn without farm animals? Thankfully we have the cute This Little Piggy set to fill it up!
I just love that roof made with the Home Sweet Home die cuts & the Sale-A-Bration freebie, Bubbles & Fizz DSP.
I knew I had to add straw to the barn/pig pen and what good is straw without a cute little piggy to roll around in it?
Yea, I had WAY too much fun with this!
The piggies were heat embossed then watercolored with ink and an aqua painter.
(all products are linked at the bottom of this post for your ordering convenience)
I used an accordian-type fold to get the pen to kind of pop up when opened.
And here it is folded flat for mailing. It was a squeeze to get it into our standard A2 envelope,
But it went.
🐷
I hope you all have a wonderfully fabulous weekend filled with your favorite activities!
I'll be back late Saturday night/Early Sunday morning for a Blog Waddle (hop) with my Stray Ducklings friends.
Until then,
Happy Stamping!
