Hi there! I made this card for Sharon's Stamp Simply challenge. You can read all about it here. I've done very little paper piecing, so this was fun trying something different. I think one of the reasons I haven't used this technique in the past maybe because I don't have many stamps that lend themselve to paper piecing.
Lucky for me I have this adorable Baby Elephant stamp it's made by Peachy Keen Stamps. I used Basic Grey Two Scoops dp for the paper piecing. I got mine from Flourishes LLC. The welcome sentiment is from Kitchen Sink Stamps Never A Loss 4 Words set.
Flourishes has a new release today and Sharon's Card shows it off wonderfully. Make sure to check the other girls samples for ssnotime28. I'm sure you will find inspiration!
Sharon's: Sharon made a wonderful card for dad!!
Julie's : Julie did a amazing job cutting and piecing WOW!!
Tammy's : Tammy even dressed the dog!!
I'll be later with another up load as well as candy info. Until then enjoy!
Thanks for stopping by:)

Dee, this is so adorable! That Two Scoops paper is perfect for a baby card, and the little diaper pin accent is a perfect touch to tie it all together! Glad to be working with you on Sharon's challenges! :)
