Posts Tagged ‘Paper Piecing’

For the Inspiration Challenge (IC902), we’re visiting The Kitchen Store & their Pinterest Board where I found THIS picture.

My card is not hard..just a lot of die cutting & paper piecing. This lovely paper is double sided & I used both sides to create the pots & vases. On the pink pots, I used a flower die to cut the marbled side & attached them  on top. I attached all the pots, vases & watering can onto the cobalt blue background. The greeting was stamped vertically onto a mini slimline layer.

The largest, central pot & watering can were popped up on top of the others.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

I hope everyone had a very good Thanksgiving! For the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC866) we are visiting Colorful Images & their Pinterest Board where I was inspired by THIS picture.

My slimline card was created using die cuts, some new paper & a greeting from an outdoor stamp set. The cute little camper & van were die cut out of several different colors & pieced together. Normally, the camper faces left, but I needed it to face right, so after die cutting the body of it, I placed just the piece of paper (minus the die) on top the magnetic mat & placed the embossing mat on top & ran it thru the machine. This helped remove the normal indentations from the die. All of the other pieces were ok as is, I just moved them to the opposite side. The van & the camper are both popped up on foam. The paper pad is 6×6, but I discovered one side could be matched up to the other so I carefully did this & I can barely see it in person.

You can see the dimension here.

For the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC825) we’re headed to Perfectly Posh Boutique & their Pinterest Board where I found THIS picture for my inspiration.


My card started w/ die cutting the pieces for the truck & pumpkins then paper piecing them together. To make it appear that the pumpkins were in the bed of the truck, I attached them to the back side of the lower section of the truck then attached the top of the truck under the pumpkins. On the kraft colored background I used the 2 part plaid stencil & a combo of the two blue Distress inks. The color is much closer to the truck in real life.
