Old? Pig! TMR

 Hi Everyone, my card today is for 

 OH! so much choice, but what design? In the end, I cased a card I did a while ago here.

I chose my pig and sentiment and took them into Silhouette. I sized them to fit a 6 x 6 inch card, and print and cut 3 layers of each, and also cut was a brown layer for the sentiment.  Next, I glued the sentiment layers together, and coloured the pig with DI's and added 3D gloss to his eyes.  That was when I realised, there would be no background, as you can tell, I don't plan my cards, they all evolve.

Searching my files for "farm", I found an enclosure and a background, that would be suitable for it. I layered them in PS and printed them out to fit the card, then fussy cut around the image. It was placed onto the base card, the pig was 3D'd and the sentiment was attached to the card.

Cow card & box CCC

 Hi Everyone, my DT cards today is for -

Critter Crazy

Whether Furry, Feathered, Fantasy, Fairytale, 
Scaly, or Insect, there must be a critter.
 

Something different today, a card and a box. I had this image amongst others a while ago and decided to use it. I printed it out, and die cut it, first cutting the ears to go outside the frame. After cutting, I added it to black card using 3D pads to lift the ears. I found some paper in my files and printed it fit a 5x7inch card. Then layered both onto black card. The sentiment I have had copied from somewhere, a long time ago. I arranged it in Photoshop and printed it out, then using the same die, cut it the same width as the cow image, added it to black card. All then attached to the base card. 

The milk box, again something I have had a long while, but I thought it would match the card, so off to my old Silhouette, cut the outer box in white card, then the black "tube" to fit inside the box. They were then put together.  A fun pair.
