Sail Away

 



Time for another great challenge at 613 Avenue Create.  The theme is anything goes with an optional twist of paper piecing. 

For my card I used the following ingredients

Alcohol inks Pentart and Airondack
Tim Holtz Tree Stamps
Stampendous Sailboats and Die Set
Copic Markers 
Bird Rubber Stamp

I created my background for the card with Alcohol Inks and a few rubber stamps then I paper pieced my Sailboats on to the card.

Stardust amd Pumpkin - Paper Piecing

 
This is my second card for the paper piecing challenge at Fitztown.  There is still time to join our this challenge just create your card and enter it here.  
 
I made this card with an image  from the Stardust and Pumpkin collection from Fitztown.  I first printed and cut out my image in a fine patterned peach paper. My next step was to print and cut out the dress  and hair band in an coordinating green and peach dotted pattern paper. Once I added the dress and hairband  to my image I coloured her wings and hair with my Copic Markers. 
 
To complete my card I added my image to layers of coordinating papers, added some faux stitching, bling and a flower.
 
Have a creative day.
