There's a fabulous sketch on Papertake Weekly and its perfect for these sweet Japanese girls, the stamp is dream2stamp. I've masked them for the challenge on Secret Crafter but then I wanted to paper piece them so wouldn't actually see that I've masked them. So here's the before.
I used Basic Grey papers Urban Prairie and the flowers are a punch and from Poppicraft. I've tried to keep it simple the girls were quite large together but it was hard and I'm still thinking its too simple
it's a fabulous card Debby! love the girls in their kimonos and the sketch shows them off really well. hugs, annie x
ReplyDeleteJust fabulous! Love the masking and paper piecing. The middle one stands oust. You did a great job.

Debby, the card is lovely. I don't think any more embellishments are needed. The paper piecing makes the dresses look great and busy enough. Any more embellies and I think it would look too busy and crowded. Super card.
ReplyDeleteoh debby this card is adorable ~ the masking works so well with these images ~ those flowers just finished it off ~perfect

I don't think it's simple at all!! I love it. I like how you've layered up the kimonos and the combination of papers you've used. I'm very pants at mixing papers and not getting a mish mash. I like it simple me!!
ReplyDeleteLike the masking too - must have a go at that challenge.
