I love paper piecing. I find it so relaxing. Hero Arts has great images for paper piecing too. I had a hard time choosing but I finally settled on these poppies. Here is my card:
I started by choosing some Echo Park papers. I stamped my image onto the script paper, then I stamped the image again on the red paper and the yellow paper and then cut them out. To add dimension to the poppies I used some Copics to highlight them. I pop dotted each piece before I attached it. I colored the stems in with Copics.
Now it's your turn! Go create a paper piecing of your choice. Remember each card gets you and entry to win a $25 Gift Certificate from our wonderful Sponsor Simon Says Stamp.
I can't wait to see what you come up with.
