Paper Piecing Bargello Style

My June Stampin' Success magazine from Stampin' Up! had a fun idea. Why not use the Bargello needlepoint style for paper crafting? On this card, I used my Neighborhood DSP from the SAB catalog, cut 3" x 1/4" strips plus one 3" x 1/2" strip to make this interesting background paper. I really like it! I wish it wasn't quite so sunny outside when I took the picture so that you could see the DSP better. The baby carriage image is from Fun & Fast Notes and the baby is from All in the Family. There are large polka dots on the Pretty in Pink background piece, made with the texture plate. I think this will make a great baby card for a couple of customers/friends who just had baby girls.
Want to see this in person? Give me a buzz or drop me a line. I'd love to get together with you!

Birthday Wishes Notes Style

Fun & Fast Notes is a great basic stamp set. Look at this fun cake image...some markers, a little glitter and ta da! You're done. Oh, and the panels are made out of left over strips of DSP. This sketch was challenge 35 over on Stampin' Addicts. Very fun!

Thanks for stopping by the Stamping Station.

Blessings and a great Christmas season to you.
