YOU ARE INVITED TO A PIG-NIC...

haha!

i grabbed this file at the DIGIPLAYGROUND for today's post.

since i first saw it i wanted it so bad. i think is adorable.

may and june are full of graduation parties. i have a few to congratulate including my son.

and then i thought i will make this gable box and i will cut some duplicates of the animal and make my own invites or congratulation cards. i can also use it as it is: a treat box or maybe even for decoration.

and if i switch the inside i can use it for many more occasions. 

Graduation Party Invite and Gable Box

isn't she adorable?

-she is a jamie cripps svg design-

i added the graduation cap/hat from a cricut cartridge.

 (NOTE: the cap does NOT come with the file)

-this is how the invite will look-

ooops! the eyes are upside down but if i do not tell, you wouldn't notice it.

-and this is the inside-

i used my die cutter (cricut explore) for the cutting and writing.

(the font is from the "all mixed up" cricut cart)

and i thought it would be funny to write

PIG-NIC 

instead

of

PICNIC

just to have some more fun

here you can see it attached to the box.

the final gable treat box measures around 

4-3/4" x 1"

the one i made is a bit taller because of the cap.

-i added some shimmer to the eyes and feet, and some color to her cheeks-

i think you will love this box.

-this is the file you will find at the digiplayground-

oh and they also have a cow,

maybe next project will be beefy, lol

and now as always, 

thank you so much for stopping by. 

i appreciate your visits and comments. 

did you know you can add your project photo to the digiplayground gallery?

MY PINK STAMPER NOVEMBER RELEASES WHOLE PROJECT SNEAK PEEK

sunday

i am at home listening to the word of God on the radio since i do not go to church any longer.

then, i have miss LULU at my knees wanting MORE ATTENTION...if that is possible :D---she is scratching my leg and pushing me so i pick her up and play...oh my! and did i tell you she follows me every where and i mean every where. i move, she moves. i turn around and she is right there with me turning around too. i read somewhere pugs CRAVE human attention.  Lulu has that craving plus more cravings:  food and some expensive jerky treats. 

she is a pig PUG indeed, lol---

BUT, i love her so-so-so much.

i also have to do laundry and cleaning today, but i am going to wait on it for a bit. instead, i decided to work on this mini card from the LUNCHBOX THOUGHTS from MY PINK STAMPER NOVEMBER RELEASE. i am telling you this again and is not because i am on her design team but this release is another HUGE one. some of them have so many stamps in one set and,  practically for pennies. did i say pennies? what are pennies?, lol...well, i should say a few bucks worth every penny. and they are so super cute and for all type of occasions.

i made today this pug pig (*&*) today to share with you another sentiment of the LUNCHBOX THOUGHTS clear stamp set and it has its own mini envelope too.

Hugs & Kisses

the piggie is from paper dolls for everyday cut at 2.53" x 2.02" (according to the gypsy). the square where the pig is welded with a small tab are from dear george and basic shapes.

a few more pics of LULU, hehe...i mean the piggie from paper dolls, lol

here is part of the envelope from the wild card cut at 6.6" x 5.28" (real size dial) to fit the mini card.

*******************************

ALSO from LUNCHBOX THOUGHTS -
(my pink stamper clear stamps november new release)

You are the Greatest Kid Ever
2.25" x 4"
tag

i got myself the nate's abcs at joanne's for $30 a while ago but did not have time to use it until today. this is where the goat  came from cut at a tiny 1.46" high and all its layers. too cute!

a few more pictures below

the sentiment you already know is from the LUNCHBOX THOUGHTS set but the stars are from another of my pink stamper collection of stamps called SCHOOL DAYS.
you can find both HERE and the rest of her fabulous collection of stamps and also where to buy them.

hope i am getting your ideas running.
holidays are coming and you need to start adding them to your wish list, lol

more to come as time permits but in the meantime, keep checking

because you never know what she has up her sleeve---wink-wink.

WILD CARD WITH LISA/GIFT CARD

Hello everyone...

I hope all the Mama's had a terrific day with

their loving families.

I had a big surprise...my brother and his family 

came over from Puerto Rico and spend almost two days with me.

They had a wedding to assist in Florida and they stopped here before they went down south.

I was in heaven. I haven't seen them in 5 years and they have a new addition to the family whom I got to be delighted with.

A 6 months old nephew!

The most adorable and happy baby I have ever seen.

I had a terrific Mama's day as you can see.

Priceless in my heart.

Well, now onto the series.

Today we have the Gift Card from page #70 and #39 in our series.

My Gift Card

5 inches

 This card you can cut on a 12x12 mat up to 7-1/4inches they say.

I was a bit at lost an in a hurry making this card. I did try the Glossy Accents. I bought it since I started making cards and tried it once before but it was a mess, lol since. As you can see on the hogs and the phrase, it looks pretty cool this time :)

I used Kraft cardstock for the base and band, construction paper for the envelope and the patterned paper is from a pack I purchased at Ross a while ago.

Now, I will present you

Lisa's Gift Card

 Don't you love it,

when we have such a different approach with the same card?
