Hi everyone, Jean Okimoto here with a mix of Memory Box and Poppystamps designs - including a friendly big pig.  A glossy black Paisley Bloom Leaf Arch - layered over a Knotted Circle - creates a frame for the happy pig.

Cut the Paisley Bloom Leaf Arches from the new Black Glossy Paper Pack sheet.  The heavyweight cardstock emphasizes the great details on the leaves.  Cut the largest Knotted Circle from matte black cardstock.

Cut the Poppystamps Grand Whittle Pig from the pearly pink Vintage Pastel Mirror Pad sheet.  Cut the snout again from a pink 6x6 in the Berry Red Collection.  Cut the pig again from black cardstock and layer it - slightly ofset to the left - for dimension.

Cut the flowers - also from the Paisley Bloom Leaf Arch Set - from different shades of pink.  Cut two more of the largest flower.  Assemble the flowers.

Stamp the greeting - from the Poppystamps Whittle Wild Animal Sentiments set - on white cardstock with Charming Pink VersaFine Clair.  Trim it with the smallest Rectangle Basics die.

Attach the diecuts to a gray slimline card (3-½" x 8-½").  Add pale pink jewels from the Pastel Fairy Jewels set.

The new Black Glossy and pink Vintage Pastel Mirror cardstock capture the details on the Grand Whittle Pig and Paisley Bloom Leaf Arch.  Pink jeweled flower centers add dimension and visual weight to balance the very Grand Whittle Pig.

Thanks for visiting - have fun with this design!

I LOVE this pig! And I really like how you added the flowers and wreath to him. Now I am thinking of ways I could use extra things to make really different cards with the pig. I would love to get this die because the pig is just adorable. I fell in love when I saw him the first time recently.
