DTC #176 - S.A.E. - I'm Bacon You a Cake

Here is my Design Team card for Double Trouble #176 "SomeThing, AnyThing, EveryThing" (aka Anything Goes)... I love this challenge because it gives many challenges to hook up with some of our previous partners and do my own thing. And Twisted Sister loves to celebrate National Mud Pack Day and what a variable and fun twist to include in your anything goes project... piggies with or without mud OR Browns and Pink Colors OR use pigs and colors for additional chance at random draw. 

I was torn between which Piggie stamp set would I use. However, when I went through my woodgrain papers the one chosen was the center of a 12 x 12 which gave the appearance of a circle which was one of the elements in the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #597 and that settled which piggie to use.  



Experimented with a funfold card... but didn't like the unfinished look of the inside so converted to a standard A2 using the same panels for my background with some revamping.

Stamped piggie using black Memento Ink, fussy-cut, colored using Copic Markers with closest matches to Flamingo for the pink piggie, Bluebird, Jade and Honey Butter for the floral headpiece using the Color Dare Challenge #619. Sentiment stamped on white cardstock with border of black, Piggie and sentiment were adhered to background with 3D thin foam tape under snout and pig's feet for dimension. 


On the inside card base, bottom right-hand corner, I'm Bacon You a Cake theme was stamped using cake, balloons  and a couple sentiments.  

Please hop on over and join us at Double Trouble, have fun with our Something, AnyThing, EveryThing challenge. Play along with Twisted Sister's optional twist and pair up with some of our previous partners while earning additional chances to our random draw. Check out the Design Teams inspirations, and then let us see what you create... hope to see you there.

PIG TRIVIA: 
You will be surprised on what pigs eat. 
I thought they ate everything; but pigs'
diets are quite limited.

Sue this is so cute! You used the colors perfectly! And I love the way the wood on that paper comes perfectly to the center for your circle and to highlight that cute pig. Fabulous for the challenges! :)
