Clearly Besotted May Release Day! Piggy Plushie Planner

Hello ! Who knew it would come around so fast! It’s Release Day and all sets will be available at 8pm GMT tonight. Do remember to go to the Facebook page as there’s always a giveaway of the entire release.

Today I’m using a set called ‘Piggy Plushie Planner’ (try saying that quickly!). At the moment I don’t have any plans so thought I’d use the images more traditionally. Here’s my little pig friend Pascal, doing a ‘click catch’ save.

Noone gave Pascal the memo that it’s not the 80s anymore and he’s not supposed to catch balls in the cone, but with his hands!! I thought the coffee cup looked rather like one of those cones you clicked and it sent the ball up into the air and you had to catch it again- perfect for playing alone!!

Pascal, being from Liverpool is wearing his Liverpool FC kit (of course!) and has made a good stab of trying to catch the ball!

You can see the bit on the edge where I managed to dirty it…oops! I made a net using very thin strips of cardstock arranged in a grid pattern behind a u-shaped goal frame. I snipped out some grass and then add some clouds.

You might recognise the Cloudy Days Stencil which all of the team love using. Such a staple in my craft kit now! Oh and the grass is hiding a slight bodge in the stamping the sentiment, but at that point the net was attached (when will I learn to stamp the sentiment first and then there’s no worrying about removing other elements!) so had to continue!

Don’t forget to visit the Clearly Besotted Blog to grab some inspiration before visiting Keeway’s blog for the last time- hasn’t it been fab having her as guest! I hope she comes again! Michelle will have two posts as usual- her video and blog post.

As usual, the Release goes live at 8pm. All sets and stencils are available from 8pm GMT tonight on the Clearly Besotted store and Simon Says Stamp.

I do love finding out which sets are your must haves too! Do let me know.

See you soon,

Keren xx
