It's time to show off your mad scissor (and gluing) skills!!

I have a couple of friends who are just starting to get into the stamping hobby. I told them their next adventure would be in paper piecing. So then, I figured you all could do up a bunch of snazzy examples for them to ooh and aah over!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE to paper piece. It must be the little girl inside me (somewhere) who loves to play with paper and scissors! Paper dolls were some of my favorite toys as a child.

I took a quick look at this last night and at first I thought it said paper piercing...when I looked at the sample I didn't see any piercing! What the heck...upon closer inspection I discovered the real challenge.I love to do paper piecing so here's my card for today. Great challenge!

Thanks for looking.

ohmypaper! · 09-10-2011, 11:11 AM

I love paper piecing! It is a fun technique. I have had a lot of trouble with this card today! I used my computer to type out the sentiment. Having some printer troubles....it wouldn't type out the bottom parts of the p's, y's, and g's so I used a marker to fill it in. For whatever reason, my computer will not let me go in and realign or clean the cartridge...I spent about 30 minutes trying to get it to work. As I uploaded this pic....I realized that the printer jumped...and Thanksgiving is higher then Happy!!!!!!!!!!!! cry!!! I am including it anyway...

I am deleting my original...My printer is working...so I put a new sentiment over the original! Now it's not crooked!!!

THANKSGIVING BLUE BIRD
