Sending a Smile

This month at CAS Mix Up,  Linda is challenging us to use our patterned papers with Paper Piecing

  • I selected this daffodil stamp and three pieced of patterned paper to suit
  • Stamped the image on each in black and fussy cut the parts and attached the small pieces in place
  • On cream card I stamped the image again twice in grey and as it was too dark I shaded over it with a white Derwent Pastel pencil and lightly coloured the parts with pencils.  Added some depth to the image with coloured pencils
  • Then stamped and gold embossed the sentiment
  • Assembled all the elements on a mustard yellow card and added some white gel pen to the stamen.

  2. What a wonderful idea - your card is quite stunning. You are really putting me to shame Robyn. I have been trying to work on a water color card but keep goofing. I tell myself that every time I mess something up, I learn something. Oh when will I quit learning.
