Paper Sundaes Challenge #46 - Adorn those Corners!

Happy Sundae!  This week's challenge (PSC46) over at the Paper Sundaes Challenge Blog has a theme - "Adorn those Corners (of the image)"!  We are being sponsored this week by our wonderful monthly sponsor Simon Says Stamp!  I made a small card to send with a gift using a Magnolia image called "Sweet Tilda" which I coloured with my copics.
I stamped and then cut it out using my Spellbinders Label 4 die but then cut off the ends so it would fit the card better.  To "adorn my corners" I used Making Memories Poinsettas similar to the ones you can find here at Simon Says Stamp.  I also added some red pearls to the other corners.  The sentiment was from a Kraftin Kimmies set and I don't know the manufacturer of the paper as I was able to use up some scraps!  Be sure to check out the Paper Sundaes Blog to see the other fabulous design team creations.  I'm so lucky to work on a great team with such talented ladies!!

You still have a few days left to enter my blog candy draw here!  Have a great week everyone!

Paper Sundaes Challenge #10 - Tweet Talk


Happy Sundae!  This weeks challenge over at Paper Sundaes was a BIG CHALLENGE for me!  The challenge was to do paper piecing which I have never even tried or heard about before.  A big THANK You to Shana who sent me some examples!  


I used the most adorable image by Penny Black called "Tweet Talk" which you can purchase over at Simon Says Stamp.  I stamped the image on a Top Note Die cut and then stamped the same image on my SU designer paper and cut out the dress which was the part I wanted to paper piece!  I coloured her with copics (E00, E02, E1, E13, E15, E33, E35, E41, E55, E57, E59, R02, BG11, BG13, Y0000, Y00, Y02 & T1) and added a sentiment from the CC Designs Spring Kit.  The felt flowers I used were also from Stampin Up.  


Be sure to check out the Paper Sundaes Challenge Blog for more great examples from our design team and show us your own paper pieced creations for a chance to win a Simon Says Stamp Gift Certificate!
