PAPER PIECING

It's been a while since I did some paper piecing and it was great to see it as part of the challenge at Back to Basics and Beyond - a new challenge which I found today.

 I decided to use Stampin Up's Beautiful You as it's a set I haven't used in a while and it really lends itself to paper piecing.  I used some retired papers from SU - yellow is not really a colour I use very often but it's a good one for Spring  I think.  I've also used the retired Botanical Blooms on this card.





Once I started I couldn't stop and ended up doing another one - using another retired Stampin Up set called Painter's Palette but in different colours - again no colours I normally use.



I'm going to go through my stamps and see what others I could use for this technique.

    Your paper piecing is fabulous Fiona! Love this elegant stamp too. Looks fantastic in both designs, but I must say, I love the full length image and the gorgeous sunny yellow of the first. Two delish creations. Hugs, Wends xoxo
