Here is my Card!

I have Gingham Paper, but ever since I saw, a card, similar this

in the Occasions Catalog…I had to try!

Using a ruler and lining up diagonally on my Grid Paper,

I drew all the Blushing Bride lines and then colored in between 2 of those lines.

I then used Old Olive to draw the dark lines!

I love how the Plaid turned out…not the Pig.

I didn’t want to use my blends for bleeding to the back.

Next time…I will cut a piece of Whisper White Regular and draw and color

with the Stampin’ Blends, and then attach as a white on white look!

 

Here is the inside

This is going to my SIL. I hope she isn’t as critical as I!

Yes, I cut all these pigs apart from their wording!

I wanted to be able to use them separately, and so I did!
