Peter Piper Pieced a Piece of Pretty Paper!!!


A little close-up of her pretty little top,,ooooh

Click to zoom in on this piccie, the little flower on the envelope,
the centre heart is from the border punch off cuts as I didn't
have a heart punch that small!! Waste not, and all that!!
Inside. Sentiments are doodlebug rub ons, front I have
rubbed onto parchment paper.
Ha ha ha, can you recite that?? Well over at Just Magnolia
this week the theme is Paper Piecing, I always thought it was
Piercing? a thing that was done with a type of needle tool?
Well it's not as difficult as you think and they have a fab demo
link over there if you are not too sure how to achieve this
fabby effect. Well here is my Little Tilda, all dressed up in her
beautiful (PP) Top, Bow and Trainers!!Lol the beautiful paper
I have used for this is from the delightful DCWV Once Upon a
Time pad, and oh there are some truly fairytale papers in this
pack. Other papers are from K & Co recycled. Flowers have
been punched, ribbons and embellies from stash. I have just
seen over at Roses on Paper a great challenge which this card
fits perfectly, head on over there and check it out. They will
be opening a new outlet store called Bells & Whistles in July,
the store will stock the cutest stamps around, designed
by no other than the beautifully talented Elisabeth Bell!!!
Wow!! So what are you waiting for!! If you enter you could
also be eligible for a guest DT post!!! Happy Crafting to you
all! TFL Suexx

Hi Sue, wow your cards are gorgeous, I just looked through the most recent ones and I love them all. I think I need to find a good place to get some different flowers, I don't have really pretty ones and I think they can make a card look so much prettier. I love the way you do your tutorials too, I need to do that for my shaker card (should have done it when I was making it then I wouldn't need to make another one!!)
Hope all is good with you and you are enjoying the sunshine!
Hugs,
Charlotte
