Hero Arts Challenge

Hello... I finally had some time to make a card for the Hero Arts Challenge this week. It's all about piecing paper together so for this owl I stamped it 5 times then cut and distressed each piece. For the owl's face I made eye lids from paper and eye lashes from flowers. Thanks for stopping by and have a great week!

Tuesday Tipster #4 Using your scraps quickly & easily

I'm excited about this Tuesday Tipster and a GIVE AWAY!! In order to win you have to sign up to "follow me" yup bribery and if I'm lucky enough that you already are following me then leave a comment and if you get a friend to "Follow me" then you can leave another comment so you have a greater chance to win a HEW HERO ARTS CLING FLOWER STAMP! Hope that makes sense.

Last week I was so inspired with Shari's ATC cards on the HA blog that is what got me rocking for this Tipster.

This was my dilemma .... my growing paper pile so I decided to sew them together quickly to make a card without to much thinking.

Grab some coordinating colors in different sizes

Lay them out and sew together adding as you are sewing or you can put a piece of tape on the back to hold papers together.

Then fill in the spaces so you will have the desired cards shape you want. I added the green check here. Sew that together.

Now have fun and add decorative stitching around every edge of the papers and trim the boarders.

Then I stamped the NEW Hero Arts Florish background stamp and did some distressing. See the card below I sewed some ribbon on (for the CAARDvards challenge) and added some dots.

Have fun and I'll show you some more I made as well....I used 85% of my paper pile so I was pretty happy.
