Paper Piecing

Darlene is our host for the challenge at the Sisterhood this week. She is asking everyone to make a project using "Paper Piecing and/or Piercing". For my project, I chose to make a tag using one of the Prima Mixed Media Dolls.

First, I stamped the doll onto white card stock and colored her with SU markers. Then I stamped the image onto two different designer papers from DCWV's Floral Stack and cut out the head band and dress. I used flowered ribbon for the sash on the dress. Before adhering the doll to the tag, I used Tim Holtz Distressed Ink "Vintage Photo" to create an aged look to the tag. Once the doll was adhered, I used a sentiment from SU's "Fabulous Phrases" onto white card stock, punched it out with the small oval punch and layered it onto a larger oval punched from the designer paper. Daisiesand butterfly from K & Company were added to the corner and then the tag was finished off with SU Rose Red grosgrain ribbon.

If you love a good challenge head on over to the Sisterhood and join in the fun. Don't forget to check out all the wonderful inspiration by the sistahs and step-sistahs.

Until next time...
