One of my favorite stamping techniques is paper-piecing. It’s time consuming, but I just get carried away when I snip away.

Most of the patterned papers from August 2009 Taylored Expressions Key Ingredients; Luxe Designs (Green bg paper);
Ribbon: Basic Grey;
Stamps: A Muse (School Girl); Unity (house, tree);

Created for Taylored Expressions Birthday Bash Challenge #3: Paper-piecing.

Another Unity Stamp anniversary FIRST challenge. F= Flower, I= Insect, R= Ribbon, S= Scallop; T= Turquoise or Teal.

When I first got all my 48 Stampin’ Up! ink pads, Taken with Teal was my least favorite. I thought this color should be banned, haha. It just didn’t look pretty enough. I actually gave it away, but later bought it again, heehee. Now that summer is fast approaching, I think this is very cool color. It’s growing on me (is this the right term?) Anyway, I wanted to create the card with houses in Carribean in mine. Yellow wall, red window.

When I create projects using someone else’s sketches, I do not like to alter the position. Someday I’ll be more creative, but for now I’d like to stick to the plan. =)
