So Miss Marti from Pez-A-Doodle is hosting a challenge over on the Studio G Collector's Group at PCP. I don't think any of y'all are over there, think I know you all from SCS - it's totally different....more intimate I would say - and me likes it. Anywho - so I got the list of assignments a while back and I can't do all of them because some of them are with the images that are Pez-A-Doodle exclusives and in case you're just tuning in: I don't color images. But I work with all the Studio G stamps - that's my job ;) So the challenge this week was to create a card featuring the paper PIECING technique. Oh yeah, I can paper PIERCE for sure. Then I saw the examples yesterday and I didn't see no paper piercing....and then I read the fine print "paper PIECING" (no r) *horror* Part of my "crafting for the working mom" mantra is that I don't do things that require a lot of time or patience - - for I have neither. But off I went to try and paper PIECE - ugh. I didn't do it right - but I do like the outcome - LOL Would love to see some of you join us over there - it's mellow...not fast-paced at all...kinda like a soap opera, you miss a week, a month, a year, you come back and it's all the same - - in a good way!
So here's my lil' card with my paper-pieced-all-wrong butterfly...and a cute lil' Studio G Series 30 stamp which of course you can pick up at Pez-A-Doodle.
....and here's my umbrella for today! Umbrella #6 (just 1 more left to show you). Now this umbrella = 2 thumbs up for sure for it's cute AND it's easy to cut *whew*. I am hearing some of you are running out to buy Scattered Showers - can't wait to see what you do with your umbrellas - they are soooo addictive. Not sure what I'm going to do once I finish working with the 7th one. Guess I'll start over - ha.
Thanks for stopping in today, Girls.
Wishing you a wonderful day!
