Also, last week, my oldest daughter celebrated her birthday and I wanted to make something special for her. Kirsti moved out last fall into an apartment she shares with a friend. We got her a new comforter set for her bedroom when she moved and she didn't really have much for her walls. When I saw the Fashionista (D1504) stamp set in the new Idea Book, it reminded me so much of Kirsti! She loves clothes and she has more shoes than I probably have had my entire life! I thought this stamp would make the perfect wall art for her room - right along side the specially made shoe shelf her dad made her! I think this picture was a hit!
I stamped the images on to White Daisy Cardstock. I stamped the girls again on another sheet using Olive ink. I then cut out the dresses, top, skirt and belt and adhered them to the top of the silhouettes. I added 1/4" strips of Olive and Black cardstock to give add a 'matted' look. I then put it in this nice black frame. I picture opening measures 8x11.
I'm entering this into CAS-ual Friday's challenge. This week's challenge is to create a Clean and Simple project using paper piecing. I think this framed art is pretty Clean and Simple! It was really fun to create!
Be sure to visit CAS-ual Friday's site to see all the other entries. If you like challenges, this is a fun site to check out every Friday.
That turned out GREAT. I love how you used the cardstock strips. it is really, really cute!!!
