Celebrate Pig Birthday Card

Hello! It's been awhile since I've sat down to make a card just for fun. There has been a lot going on in my life lately. My hubby had total knee replacement surgery in mid December and while I was taking care of him I got sick. Then, you guessed it, he got sick. It has been a rough and bumpy road but we are slowly getting back to something that resembles "normal".  I really wanted to make a card for the Bugaboo 10th Birthday Bash, so I made this Celebrate Pig Birthday Card to play along with Day 4. It's a bingo challenge and I used the middle row across: twine, Bugaboo image and die cut/punches. The Pig - Birthday Presents image was colored with a mix of Copic and Stampin' Blends markers and the papers are from the It's a Celebration paper pad by Carta Bella (2014). A celebrate die cut was added for a sentiment and everything was adhered flat for easy shipping. That's it! Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the rest of your day.

Hoping that 2020 will be a better year and that your husband keeps up with doing his therapy to make sure that he doesn't develop scar tissue in that knee.
