Cameo


It was while I was hunting for my daisy stamp the other week that I saw this stamp that I've had for a while from Butterfly Kisses. Recently I saw it had been re-released has a clear stamp for Hobby Art.
So I sort of paper pieced, I mean by sort of that I still layered the patterned paper so I still got dimension.
The papers are some I'm not keen on but they came from the same pack. I then used nestablilies to make the cameo shape behind her.
Had to use the Sizzix folder again with pearls love how this works, had to use corners again because I didn't like how the folder finished in the corner.
I'm going to pop this on the Papertake Weekly Challenge for their Anything Goes.
