Paper Piecing - inspired by Michelle Short.

 I realised I didn't share this card when I made it a couple of weeks ago.  

I was inspired by a video from Michelle Short (https://tinyurl.com/y89azccx) - where she did some paper piecing using Altenew's Paint a Flower Chamomile set.   It was a delightful card and I CASE'd it 


 I stamped the image onto some white card and onto some brown patterned paper. I fussy cut the pitcher from the brown patterned paper and layered it onto the white image.   I added some brown makers to give it dimension.  I added some colour to the flowers and then fussy cut the whole image.  Michelle does the most amazing tags so I also added my image onto a tag.  I trimmed some green gingham to added to the bottom of the tag,  Added a little stripe of black to edge it.  I added the fussy cut image with dimensional tape.  For my background I die cut a panel with a Gina K Master Layout and used a Tim Holtz Sizzix brick die, layered onto a black layer before adding to a white card base.  Added a little stamped sentiment. 

Hope you all had or are having a great weekend.   I got to spend a bit of time in the craft room working on some DT work and also having a play with Grace  - she did some brayering, swinking, and using some punches.  Now I have three or four panels of solid Distress Oxide colours waiting to be used as well as some multi coloured smooshed panels.
