I’d like to cover an oldie but goody - paper piecing. It’s like punch art but only bigger and we get to create with Spellbindersâ„¢’ die templates!

Today, Design Team Member Christy Farneth-Kerr shares her layout showing her beautiful girls in their cute outfits. Notice the poodle on their shirts?! This was Christy’s inspiration for her poodle paper piecing - isn’t it just darling!

She used S4-113 Classic Scalloped Ovals, Small (I see six of them on this poodle!) and to finish off the layout, she added S7-012 Flower Whimsy Borderabilities® Grand, S4-081 Tags 5 and S4-072 Flower Creations. Sparkled embellishments on her borders are Robin’s Nest Dew Drops, along with some touches of Clearsnap Colorbox black pigment ink.

Another great idea for using our die templates is how Design Team Member Kimberly Crawford did when making her strawberry motif for her card and box duo! So cute and who wouldn’t want to have this thoughtful gift!

She used three different dies for her strawberries! Kimberly started with two different sizes of the S4-140 Petite Ovals, Small and top it off with S4-072 Flower Creations die template. To pull off the rest of the project, she included My Mind’s Eye Penny Lane Collection, Taylored Expressions “A Year of Sweetly Stamped Sentiments”, Hero Arts “Four Leaf Grid”, Clearsnap Inks & Chalks, some buttons, twine and cardstock.

Will you be putting some pieces together of your own?
Share with us…we would love to see them!
