Piggy the Party Animal

Sandra Caldwell often has fun contests to name her new images on her Stamp Fan FB page and I won this one with the name Piggy the Party Animal. WooHoo!
Of course I just HAD to make a birthday card for Simon Says Wednesday Happy Birthday Challenge (a huge congrats on 7 years!) and have been playing on the Outlawz forum and used a sketch from their Wednesday sketch challenge.

To be honest, I tend to shy away from sketches but this one seemed perfect for what I had in mind.  The fabulous digi papers are from AMBillustrations.  The primaries were perfect and I've hung a party banner from La La Land.

Here's a closeup of Piggy the Party Animal.  He's colored with Copics using R12, R20-22 range so as not to be washed out by the primaries.  The dots on his party hat were done with a white gel pen.  He's entered in Sandra's Progressive challenge on the Sandra Caldwell Stamp Fans FB page, as well.  Lots of fun stuff goes on there, for sure.
