Nancy,
I use Stampin' Up! cardstock. Check the gallery for this technique (link is under the tutorial) for a complete list of the supplies I used.
The technique is Paper Piecing...no "R"....

I do the same thing for paper piercing. It works great! Also try a fancy stitch on your machine (no thread) and it looks even better than just the normal piercing. Try sewing with no thread on a fancy stitch, then tearing on your "dotted line" so to speak. Look awsome!
