🎉 Let’s Party with the NEW Party Piggy Stamps & Dies!

 

This week on the blog — it’s all about the Party Piggy stamps & dies from Stampin’ Up! 🐷

I’m sharing a fun tutorial where I walk you through how to make a playful shaker card featuring the cheeky sentiment:
“What’s shakin’, Bacon?” 🥓✨

This card is festive, lighthearted, and easier to create than you might think!

✨ Here are the new Supplies I used: (a complete list with clickable links is below)

• Party Piggy stamp set & coordinating dies
• Sequins and window dome (for the shaker element)
• A piece of the pretty pink pattern from the Celebratory Sips Designer Series Paper

💌 Want the project sheet?
Sign up for my newsletter and I’ll send it to you absolutely FREE!

▶️ Watch my replay here: 

Here’s another idea…
Check out my college graduation card, where Piggy is proudly carrying a pennant in school colors with the sentiment:
“Let’s Party!” on the front and “I ham so proud of you” inside. It’s cute, clever, and perfect for grads!

And here’s one more card — a playful birthday card featuring Piggy in a party hat, ready to celebrate someone’s big day!

 📦 And don’t forget — when you place a $35+ order by Sunday, you’ll receive all 3 project sheets from this week’s piggy collection:

• 🎓 Graduation card
• 🎉 Shaker card (this one!)
• 🎂 Birthday card with Piggy in a party hat
