Time to play with some Paper Piecing for the Just Magnolias and Hanglars Challenge! I love to paper piece. Reminds me of playing paper dolls ;0) Dressing up Tilda in pretty dresses with pretty paper patterns!
I also took this opportunity to make a different type of card - I used my new Grand Nesties Labels 4 - These are wonderful HUGE dies. So huge I need to get the larger platforms cuz my little ones don't work... arghhh! So I just worked with what I had and cut 1/2 of each side of the die and then attached to a 6x6 piece of paper to make an unusual gate fold card. Does that make any sense?
A photo might help you "see" it - I cute the three larger sizes of the die - one card stock, then two Prima Pattern papers. Inked the sides of all of them. My Tilda is colored with Copics then cut out and placed on a Nesties Labels 13 dies inked. This is attached to the right side opening - I added Papertrey ink ribbon and mulberry roses for embellishments. And then that paper pieced dress!! Just love a polka-dot dress don't you? Matches one of the pattern papers in my card.
The inside is done up too - All with Prima Papers -
That tag in the middle is part of the Prima paper stack, I just stamped the Alota Rubber Stamps Happy Birthday in the center of it. It was fun to do a bit different folded card - should do it more often - plain ole' square does get old huh? Habit mostly I think.
Now I hope you pop over to the Just Magnolia's and Hanglar's challenge and join us! It is my week to host, so I would love for you to pop over!
See you tomorrow for Animal Crackers!
