Pretty Tulips!

Hey my crafty friends! hope your day has been great...

Today I am back to share another creation using Jane's Doodles image..

100_5680


I took some yummy My Minds Eye patterned paper and after resizing the image to the desired I printed onto to 2 different pieces of patterned paper, trimming around one image fully and the other just the tulip heads, adhering the heads to the other image and then onto more My Minds Eye paper. I sewed around the edge of the patterned paper, adding some touches of Vintage Photo distress ink and adhered to a trimmed white card. Taking more white card stock, trimming to form a tag, stamping a sentiment from the Beautiful Peacocks stamp set, finally, adhering some pearls to complete the card.

I love to paper piece, gives such a unique look to a card and when you are in a jam to have a quick card created, then this is the perfect option.

If you love Jane's images as much as I do you can purchase this Tulip image from HERE, and her other images from HERE, oh and she also sells her images through HERE..they are perfect for colouring or paper piecing, so make sure you take a look, there might just be that perfect image that suits your style.

I am off now to head into the craft room and get some more projects created.

See you all tomorrow.

Have a great day!

Hugs
