Don't they look so happy. Love this AI stamp, it arrived yesterday with my once every two years order from Simon Says. The sentiment is from a different company.I wasn't to use this sentiment rather than one of the ones that came with it.
I decided to really work here and decided to paper piece all their dresses. So that meant stamping the image once on the card then four times on different patterned paper. I'm quite pleased with how it turned out. Got a little fiddly as I had to save some extremely small pieces for the pinky/red dress.
I coloured their bodies first then paper pieced then finished off their outfits and hair. Added just a little Wink of Stella this time to earrings and the bow, then the jacket and pinky/red dress but it really isn't showing here.
I decided to give that pale blue outline that seems to pick the image up. Had one stuff up but coved up pretty well and its not glaring in your eyes obvious.
Well I now have enough cut outs to do another three cards and I reckon I could do a card with the front lady dancing on her own if I was to cut her out. All the others would have things missing.
Okay I would like to add this to
I know its a CAS challenge but I wanted to use the image as is and didn't add any other embellishments so hopefully its okay. Certainly paper pieced.
Just one more look. I hope you enjoy your visit and come again soon.
