Elizabella

The challenge on the bellaholicsanonyomous group this week was to use paper piecing. Lynn is running this challenge and she also created an awesome tutorial on paper piecing if you need some help, so be sure to check out her blog, (she does awesome work anyway so you really should check it out if you haven't before).

I love paper piecing but don't really do it as much as I'd like to so I was excited to do this challenge. I chose Elizabella as her dress just screams to be paper pieced!! I colored her with copics and prismacolors. Oh, used my A Muse Essential Ovals for her to stand on also. I paper pieced her dress with paper from Basic Grey's Sugared and then used stickles on her bag and liquid pearls on her purse.
I had some emails asking where to get the liquid pearls....you can get them at Susana's Store !

The sketch is from the bella forum on SCS and is sketch BSc39.The paper is also Basic Grey's Sugared and the buttons I had in my button box.

On the inside the sentiment is from stampingbella.com as well.


Thanks for visiting my blog! I appreciate it!!
