Good morning everyone. It's been a while since I have posted, my apologies, but life got in the way!
This week at Papercutz Challenge, the theme is to make a craft project with the theme "Down on the Farm" using any colors or theme you would like. Now having grown up in big city, Boston, I don't have a lot of familiarity with fams and I have almost no craft supplies. However I do have this cute boy stamp from I Brake for Stamps; he's got a straw hat and a rake, certainly that's a little "farmish" don't you think?
I colored everything but his clothes with Copics and decided to paper-piece his clothes. I stamped parts of him again on scrap pieces of paper, cut them out and glued them down. I consider myself to still be a Copic beginner and I really enjoy paper piecing. In person he is very cute. I was all done and feeling proud of myself when I realized he was holding a bag of seed corn! I solved that problem with my Tonic leaf punch and the vibrant leaf paper from HOTP. Finished it off with the Autumn rub-on from Scenic Route Paper, the cool fibers and the leaf charm from my stash. All in all, not too bad.
Join us this week, won't you?
As always, I love to read comments.
What a cute little farmer boy, Penny! Love your wonderful card...I'm ready for Fall, are you?
