hello lovely stampers!
I was lucky to be chosen as queen last challenge with the snarky sisterhood so I have the honour of being the guest designer this fortnight. The challenge is #193 P is for Paper Piecing.
Okay so I'm fessing up - never done this before! But how hard can it be right? Turns out it's brilliant! Especially for people like me with no copic markers and not a whole lot of drawing skills. Girls, I have your back!
Stamped the bird from Darkroom Door Garden Birds using Memento tuxedo black ink, onto several coloured Stampin' Up papers and then fussy cut out each body part and glued them together to get the finished bird. Stamped the leaves from Altenew Beautiful Day onto the leftover reverse of the papers and die cut them with the coordinating die. Fussy cut the conversations from the same papers, black inked the edges using memento tuxedo black and glued them onto the card. The leaves were glued, bird popped up with foam squares, and the words from Tim Holtz Small Talk was also glued in place. Finally the black card panel was glued onto a paper panel, then glued onto a black card base.
I'll be using this paper piecing technique again now I know it's a thing! lol Come on and join in the fun with the snarky sisterhood!
