When Pigs Fly!!! Hey... Wait a Minute!

I made this card for the challenge over at the Rubbernecker Stamps Blog to create a card with any type of fold besides the regular fold. So I did a double gate fold card with a belly band and I used this gorgeous little flying pig stamp from Stamp Oasis. I used my awesome Scor Pal to make the folds in the belly band and the card! What??? you don't have a Scor Pal??? And why not? I love this thing and it is on my stamp table all of the time... the best part???Diana, the owner and INVENTOR of this little miracle! She is a DREAM to work with and she has the kindest heart of anyone! Check them out... then BUY ONE...

So, Like I was saying... I stamped this little guy and colored him with gamsol and faber castell pencils. Then I added SHIMMMERZ to the wings and the moon and some of the little stars in the background. I cuttlebugged my top note die cut and cut it in half.I cut the image and the background out with my nesties and decorated the inside of the card as well. I punched some stars out and painted them with SHIMMERZ as well. Here it is! I hope you like it!

I absolutely LOVE this. It's one of my favorite Fantasy images and most definitely one of my favorite sayings, right up there with "when chickens have lips". Fabulous job with this challenge!

Great card Dawn! I love the colors and the embossed bg! Funny, I actually have some of these images. My DH's call sign is Pig and he is a pilot! It just made the image that much better to me! :)
