Hey everyone! Time for another Stamp It Saturday post, and this week our fabulous Sandiebella is reminding us how easy and effective it is to create gorgeous outfits for images using PAPER PIECING!
Taking the patterned papers, ink the stamp just on the section that you need and stamp down onto the paper.
Repeat for all pieces that you want to paper piece.
Using a precision scissors, cut out all the pieces of clothing from the patterned papers.
Using a liquid glue, adhere the pieces on to the image.
For the small pieces, use a tweezers.
If desired, use your markers to add shading to the clothes.

Lovely.
I like to do paper piecing. I do paper piecing fairly often. What I do differently is trim the patterned paper to within about 1/8th of an inch from the edge lines (to keep from wasting adhesive). Then I run it through my Xyron to get adhesive on the back. The added bonus is that the sometimes thin paper has more “body” – it’s not quite as flimsy. I love the outfits you pieced. Beautiful. Thanks for your always informative posts.
Oh this is super fabulous! Love also how you colored and added shadow with markers.
Another fabulous tutorial!! Thanks Elaine..
