Hi there! Sharon has a fun challenge for us today. Here's her challenge.
I know the Stamp Simply designers have some great projects to share. You can see them all by following the links.
Our Guest Designer is Jenny
Thanks for stopping by!
Let’s Pipe Up! Piping is a sewing term and I can’t think of a comparable stamping term to explain what I mean. Since my sewing background goes much farther back than my stamping background, I often view, in my mind’s eye, my paper as fabric and my embellishments as other sewn features. In sewing, piping is a piece of covered cording used to visually separate (but actually join) two patterns or two pieces of fabric. Think of a darling little girls dress with piping separating the bodice from the gathered skirt, or a much heavier type of piping on upholstered furniture. What I’m looking for today is that narrow strip of paper to separate 2 other pieces of paper. It is a long time favorite of mine in card making and I hope you enjoy it too!!! And if you’ll scroll down to see my sample, I’ll show you how I easily do this! I hope you all have fun *piping it up* today!!!
Here's my take on the challenge.
This is simply gorgeous, Dee! The colors and textures of this paper are so elegant, and your coloring is fabulous! Love that subtle blend of colors!
