You’re Simply the Zest

This month's Monthly Mix Challenge at Gina K. Designs is to use paper piecing.  

I paper pieced the lemons from Gina K. Designs More Fun Fruit by stamping them in black ink and clear embossing them on Gina's Amethyst Poly-Glaze Foiling Sheets that I had foiled with Gold Foil.  After I detail cut the images, I colored them using yellow alcohol ink markers.

Here's another angle that shows the foiled paper piecing a bit more clearly.

My card's inspiration came from this week's Inspired by … Lemons Challenge.

I used two of Gina's Embossing Folders – Lattice and Swiss Dot – to pull in the texture of the fabric elements of the inspiration photo.

I used Gina's Single Stitched Oval Die cut and leaves from her Botanical Duo Die cuts to pull it all together using this week's Atlantic Hearts Sketch.

  1. Oh I love all the textures of the embossing, it adds so much. I also love a good pun too! Thanks for playing along with the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge (AHSC).
