I was digging through my stash of designer paper when I came across this blue, watercolor style paper and the first thing I thought of was swimming pool so I pulled out this Pool Piggies stamp set, with matching dies, from Gerda Steiner Designs I received as a RAK from a friend. I started out by stamping all of my images using memento tuxedo black ink on neenah white scraps then colored using copic markers. Once the coloring was finished, I die cut the images out using my Big Shot© before adhering them on my slimline card using glue dots. I then added some blue/green fibers from my stash and adhered a few teal sequins from Picket Fence Studios. Taking one of the sentiments from the set, I inked it in tuxedo black, stamped it directly on the card before going over it using a Sakura 3D glaze pen. Taking a few more glaze pens, I highlight parts of the piggies, and added some polka dots to the yellow swimsuit) before declaring the card finished.
