Three Chairs for the New Neighbor

Photo Details

Poster: Clownmom

Flourishes' Swing Into Spring Challenge was to use paper piecing on your card. I had fun doing this one. I love the look of faux postage, and this five-panel stamp from Just For Fun Rubber Stamps is one of my favorites. I used two Flourishes sets, Chairs for You and Summer on the Patio, for the images. The sentiment down the left side was computer-generated. The three chairs are paper-pieced.

Adorable, Lois! What a great card! I really like how you used the different images together to make one larger image. I love this stamp set! I bought it when I went to Pensacola for Copic weekend and got to shop right in the Flourishes store
