A friend sent me several stamped images of this adorable My Umbrella image from My Favorite Things. I thought it would be perfect for some paper piecing, but then I realized that since I only had stamped images and not the stamp itself, there was no way I could stamp on designer paper … so I had to get creative.
Since I had multiple copies of the stamped image, I used one for a pattern. I used temporary adhesive to attach the image to my designer papers, and then cut around each piece as a template. After attaching the cut-out pieces to my base stamped image, I used a glitter pen to add back any lines that needed to show-up. I colored the base of her coat & her hair with glitter pen. The background is chalked with glimmer chalks.
Papers are Jenni Bowlin Front Porch Mini Papers. The sketch is CPS 162. This card works for the Moxie Fab Paper Piecing Challenge & the Gingersnap Creations Good Earth Challenge, because rain is definitely necessary for The Good Earth to thrive.
Happy Monday!
You did a great job with the paper piecing! I’ll have to remember this next time I want to piece an image I’ve received.
