Now this week Elaine is hosting our challenge and she wanted us to use paper piecing on our card. I have done it a number of times with a regular stamp, but i am sure by now you all know how techno challenged i ma and this was one of those times that i scratched my head, and my bum, for a number of days before it came to me as to how i was gonna go about this. I used "Sophie" available from Mo's digital pencil, colored all the areas that i wasnt gonna be piecing with my copics and then once i had all the pieces cut and ready to stick to the already printed and colored image i went over the dp with my copics and added some shadows.
The little doll in the corner i made using a large wooden bead and some ribbon that i had gathered and then i just used lenghts of rope for the arms and legs.
The trellis is a deep edge MS punch that i just punched and then added the little leaves that were punched with a Leone em punch and then a few little flowers with teeny tiny pearl centres.
Please join us on the Challenge blog and most of all have fun.

P.S: Thanks Ms Jen, i have added my card to the challenge on Really reasonable ribbon ramblings challenges and just love it when i get the opportunity to enter my card into a challenge with the chance of winning something.
WOW Paola!! This is one of the best cards I've ever seen! Your coloring is fantastic, paper piecing to die for, that trellis and flowers - how clever, and that doll - I don't even know what to say about that. That takes an artist to do that. You should show it at Really Reasonable Ribbon, they'd love it.
ReplyDeleteReally great job. I love learning from you. Thanks for sharing!!
Hugs - Jen
