A birthday card


hello Lost Coasters Friends:

HERE BIBIANA....

I made this card using one of the mini flying ladies stamp  from "Lost Coast Designs".
This is the clown stamp and this particular  set comes with 6 mini ladies and they all are so pretty and whimsical
I decided to use the clown one for a birthday card...but the other "ladies" are so pretty too!

I used the "Paper Piecing" technique 
which consists in  stamping first the image on a piece of paper with black ink.
then stamp a second time on a piece of pattern paper, and a third if you want on a different colored paper, cut the pieces that you like to piece,
in my case I stamp on purple paper the hat, cut it,
stamp the base in green, cut it  and place both pieces on top of the main stamped image...

the result is a raised image with lots of interest and dimension!
I added some "Stickles", a ribbon and VoilĂ ! and cute birthday card!

Steampunk Drag Queen Image Goes Girly

Hi Everyone!
Karen here today with two projects made with the fun and funky stamp, Drag Queen.  The first projects has some paper piecing and both are made with backgrounds created with Distress reinkers and stains.



 


I really girly-ed the Drag Queen up on the second project with pink satin ribbon and buttons.
