#32 Paper Piecing

 

The new theme for Ike's World Challenge #32

 

is " Paper Piecing"

I used the "Hatter".  A great digi of Ike's that I immediately thought how it would work with paper piecing.  Having been working on Valentine cards my brain said this would make a great leprechaun.  Then I set about making him green.

This is what I did with it for challenge #32

I used a main Christmas green colored cardstock from Recollection (It can be purchased from Michael’s).  The following items were pieced.  The pants, jacket and hat from green.  The hat band and bow from white (I used a small foam piece to attach the bow and give the card more dimension.)  I completed it with a gold and then green mat.  The main card was created with green and I used a St. Patrick’s themed paper for the mat on the main card.

All in all I think he turned from the “Hatter” to Leprechaun just by the use of color fairly well.

 We'd love to see what you can do to make us have a good laugh and have a chance to win the challenge.

#31 Make Us Laugh

This week’s theme for Ike's World Challenge

is "Make us laugh"

I used the "Skellie Gossip".  A great digi of Ike's that sent my mind whirling with ideas. 

This is what I did with it for challenge #31

I used a main kraft colored cardstock.  I then used a brown swirl cardstock from Colorbook an 8 1/2 X 11 paper pack called Earth Tone.  I found 3 antique buttons from the button box my Mom left me.  A bit of cream ribbon finished it off.

We'd love to see what you cam do to make us have a good laugh and have a chance to win the challenge.
