I stumbled upon (literally!) a very very old 6x6 pad by My Mind's Eye and used some bits of scraps for the flowers, basket and bow. As for the itty bitty leaves - attempting to paper-piece those would have landed me in an asylum. They got the Copic treatment, instead. By dressing up the poinsettias in a non-festive outfit, we can use them all year 'round!

ReplyDeleteWonderful and cute design Asha, I love using up old paper pads and scraps to create a card, as I do like to be thrifty! I hate wasting anything lol.

My friend you are super talented and love all that you do.

ReplyDeleteSo creative & beautiful, Asha--love your paper piecing & I'm so glad you didn't try to do that on the leaves as I'd have had my doubts about you--haha!
ReplyDeleteSo gorgeous and love the piecing you did. A beautiful design and love the background pattern paper too.
ReplyDeleteHello wonderful Asha! Hanging my head in shame at being so behind in commenting; life’s been supremely hectic, what with work, travel (which involved work…crazy amounts!), DT commitments (which I’ve fallen behind in, too) and a plethora of other stuff! I hope that my ‘thought bubbles of love’ for all your cards have reached you, because I send them frequently! Starting with a fresh slate with a goal to staying caught up…Your basket of polka dot flowers has me wearing a bright smile. Paper-piecing extraordinaire!

Not only is paper piecing fun, but it adds a wow factor to an image and it's a grist way to use scraps (I've got tons). Beautiful result achieved and the ribbon in the corner is a nice touch too.
