Still not making many MAN cards....


It has been so long since I have had a chance to play along over at 365 cards! I decided to give today's Paper Piecing challenge a whirl! (Be fore warned...I will be playing along quite often in July...and next week when school is finally out!)

I love using paper piecing. I really enjoy cutting out tiny things with my micro tip scissors and putting them in place. For my (2) cards, I decided to go with something unexpected. I am combining an animal stamp set with the color pink!


These were super fun to create!! I used some scoring and sanding on white core cardstock....and I used lots of paper piecing on the flowers, hippo, and gator!


All products are CTMH except the white flowered ribbon, it is from ribbonFX via Hobby Lobby.
