Trick or Treat 4 Challenges


Hello again! Hope you are having a wonderful weekend!

Yesterday I thought I'd make a card and see how many challenges I could enter. Hooray, I found 4 challenges that fit my card:

La-La's Weekly Wednesday Challenge #6 - Paper Piecing

Simon Says Stamp Challenge - Stitch it Up

PaperPlay Challenges - Spot This



Friday Sketchers 71


My paper piecing was done on Trick or Treat Lala from La-La Land Crafts. If you haven't tried paper piecing yet, visit Jane at Whoopsie Daisy! . She has a wonderful step-by-step tutorial showing you the whole process of this technique. Like Jane, I pieced her mask, dress, and jack-o-lantern.

My "spots" are on the Doodlebug and Fundamentals DP and the "stitches" are on the ribbon and on the card (stitched) with Doodlebug Rub ons. The sentiment was made with nestabilities and Inkadinkado's Halloween stamp.

Now I'm off to enter these challenges...

Thanks for dropping by!
