Loves Rubber Stamps - Paper Shelter Paper Piecing



Hello crafty friends~ 

I wanted to share a special project, which is hanging in my craft room.  It is a quilt block I made about 6 months ago using English Paper Piecing technique and fabric.  I really love something about the pretty dresses and it inspired today's card.  I got the pattern from a Quilt Block magazine, and if you would like the pattern please leave a comment and I will look it up for you.




Today is a new Challenge at Loves Rubber Stamps....

Before we get into today's challenge, i just want to mention that Loves Rubber Stamps has so many new items, its crazy! Wild orchid flowers, envelope punch boards, new stamps, new dies...etc... Check it out! 

All right, down to business.....Challenge 90 is a fave of mine because it is Paper Piecing.  Even more fun we are sponsored by The Paper Shelter and they are donating the prize to the lucky challenge winner.  

The Paper Shelter also generously provided us with this image to work with.  Here is today's card, and I paper pieced her dress and her tights:

Welcome to the Loves Rubberstamps weekly Sensational Sunday Blog Hop! The Design Team has created some gorgeous projects for your Inspiration. Check out each link and leave a comment. If you get lost along the way, each stop will have a full list of links.

Remember, you have until 8:00 pm CST Saturday to leave your comments!


For my inspiration project today I was so excited to show this card because I love how it came out.  It kind of just evolved and was very very fun to put together.  I had to make my own roses and it's nice to have the die so that is an option, but it makes my hands feel like huge blocks of wood...it is a bit too fiddly for me.  BUT if you check out  Loves Rubber Stamps they are getting in Wild Orchid Flowers which are gorgeous. I am definitely getting some.  Now which colors....???





 You can find this stamp here at Loves Rubber Stamps.  It is called Girl's Secret Swing.

And here is a closeup of my card for today:



Materials Used

Design Paper - Crate Paper - "Party Day"

From The Heart Stamps - Feb Blog Hop {Feel The Love}




Welcome to our From the Heart Stamps blog hop. We are celebrating "Feel The Love" and all the designers have created a love themed project.  As you hop along, please leave a comment on each entry. One random commenter will be selected on each blog to win the image that the designer used. And additionally, one commenter on the From the Heart Stamps blog will be selected to win a $5 gift voucher to the store!
If you have arrived from Kelly's blog, you are in the right place, if not why don’t you start on the From the Heart Stamps blog, so you don’t miss anything.

Here is my project, using Birdbrain Conversation Hearts. I used the Birdbrain and the Sentiment, and while I love the conversation hearts, they didn't fit on my project.  Since it is digital it is easy to just pull out the parts you want to use.  

This File Folder card is super easy to make with the Envelope Punch Board.  One of my blogging buddies Indah at Miss Amber Crafts made an adorable file folder card which inspired me to make one. To find instructions, I googled "File Folder Card", here is a YouTube video by Patty.  Be careful, these are addicting to make! (Don't say I didn't warn ya!) 


Materials Used:

From the Heart Stamps Digi Image -Birdbrain Conversation Hearts
Design Paper - Fancy Pants Studios "Love Note"
Copics


Now head over to Lyn's Blog and see what she has created.Thanks so much for stopping by and don't forget to leave a comment for your chance to win!

 The hop will end on Monday February 10 at 6am, EST. Winners will be posted on the From the Heart Stamps Blog on Wednesday February 12.
