I fell in love when I saw the Always and Hope set and knew I had to combine the two for this challenge. For this card I used alcohol based markers to color, and finished up by embossing the image. To finish this 5x7 card, I stamped, embossed and die cut the floral images from the Simple Stems set on pattern paper I used from my stash and Half-Half Dots Unicorn Paper Pad. 
This paper piecing challenge definitely expanded my creative bubble which allowed me to learn a new technique that I can use on future projects.

Always Stamp Set

For this challenge, I wanted to create a fun and whimsical scene. To me, that means rainbow colors and gnomes! I paper pieced the gnomes' clothing (even the little shoes) and the pencil barrel from rainbow colors onto white card stock that I had selectively copic colored. To keep the card focused on the gnomes and the punny sentiment, I kept the remainder of the card in shades of black and white.

  • I’m sorry I missed it, too! I love paper piecing.

  • Looks like the Link Party is not working. And I just wrote up such a good blog post.
