Kyle's This Little Piggy Birthday card

 Kyle wanted a birthday card with a Piggy theme and what better than our little This Little Piggy set to make it?  I have been wanting to make a Charlott's Web card for a while a this was the perfect opportunity to do it I thought.

The card template is a Z-fold box.  The base card is Smoky slate  4 1/4x 11 scored at 2 3/4 and 5 1/2.
Take another strip of 11x 2 inch Smoky slate and score it the same way.  Invert the strips over the base card- and that is the base of the z-fold.

I added some grass cut from Pear Pizazz and the Wood crate diecut with Wood Textures DSP pack cut to fit the strip as shown.

stamp the pigs and color them in with Stampin' Blends- new alcohol markers- coming back from Stampin Up- pink pirouette- comes in a set of two for $9.

I diecut a spiderweb from Memory Box and overlaid the Happy birthday to you from Sizzix and snipped off the spiderweb that fell behind the words to clean it up a bit.  It is bit hard to see with the shadow of the web but I wanted it to look like the words was woven into the web.  I am now looking for a die that says "salutations" in a delicate font!  Sentiment from Hooray from PTI.

This is Kyle blowing out his oreo cookie ice cream birthday cake- it was really yummy!  and don't you just LOOOVE the sparklers? It's from a local bakery  and add just a few to the birthday cake and it makes it sooo festive- LOOOVE it!
