DT Make it Monday - Paper piecing with digital stamps

 

Hello everyone, Francine here! 

Today it's my turn for another MIM. I really enjoy paper piecing so I want to show you how to paper piece an All That Scraps digital stamp to add dimension and texture on your projects.

 

Supplies you’ll need:

• All That Scraps digital stamp
• Design paper
• Smooth cardstock compatible with alcohol based inks like Copic markers (but you can also do it with watercolor paper)
• Regular copy paper
• Removable double sticky tape or masking tape/transparent adhesive tape
• Glue pen
• Sharp scissors
• Other usual cardmaking supplies to create your card

 

First, choose a digital stamp in the shop or on your computer. For this project, I used Garden Girl Gertie DIGI (Sweet November Stamps). Be sure the areas you want to paper piece are not too small because it could be difficult to cut and assemble. Adjust the size of your digi image to fit your needs.  

Now print your digi stamp two times (and take notes of how your printed paper comes out because later, you’ll need to be able to lay your paper down in the same position):

1. on one sheet of smooth cardstock or watercolor paper (this is the base image you’ll need to assemble your paper piecing),

2. on one sheet of regular print paper.

 

 

Cut a big enough piece of design paper to cover the part you want to paper piece. Then tape your  patterned paper over your digi on the regular print paper sheet. To do that, you can use removable double sticky tape (that’s what I usually do) OR masking tape/transparent adhesive tape. It’s very important to adhere for sure the top of the design paper that goes into the printer first! Personally, I’ve never had problems with jam. Put this paper again on your printer and print the same image out. 

 

Your paper piece is ready to be cut ! Use sharp scissors. 

To give a beautiful finished appearance and to keep the outlines, run a black marker around the edges.

 

Final step: color your base image with your alcohol markers (I did it with Copic markers) or Distress Inks if you use watercolor paper. And only then glue the cut-out piece on the base image. Make sure to add enough glue but not too close to the edges! Finish your layout. You can match your paper pieced image to your background paper as I did. Here is my card:

 

I hope you enjoyed this tutorial. Thank you for stopping by.

Wish you a creative day!

Francine

Design Team Make It Monday - Faux Stitching

Happy Monday everyone! Laura here with a quick how-to on creating faux stitching on your projects.

I love the look of stitching and piercing on my cards, but it can be tedious, and some of the tools for creating this look are spendy! So, I recently thought of a cheap, quick, and easy way to acheive a stitched look on my cards, and today I'm sharing it with you!

You only need a couple of tools to do this (and you might already have them on hand!) - a ruler (I like the Tim Holtz Ruler because it is see through, and has marked grid lines at every 1/8", which comes in handy for this technique), and a tracing wheel (you can find these in the sewing department of your craft store. I picked mine up at Walmart for under $2).

Color up your image, and get all the layers of your card cut and ready to go.

Place the first layer to be "stitched" on a cutting mat or foam pad. Line the ruler up against an edge of the panel to mark a 1/8" border.

Then slowly, but with firm pressure, guide the tracing wheel against the edge of the ruler along the entire length of the panel.

Turn the panel, re-align the ruler to mark a 1/8" border on the next edge, and repeat.

Repeat on all edges of all layers that you want "stitched". Here are the 3 panels I "stitched" for my card.

Then, assemble your card as usual. My card features Sweet November Bufly Brynn with a sentiment from AmyR Winged Greetings.

And there you go... a faux stitched edge in a a fraction of the time! I hope you will give it a try!
