Sending You a Big Hug Spring Card Camp Card Day 3

I jumped on the chance to participate in a new card class from Online Card Classes hosted by Jennifer McGuire and friends called Spring Card Camp. Every day we get a new lesson to watch and learn from with card samples, and Day Three's idea was perfect for me! I love to paper piece and fussy cut and we were taught how to "color with paper" using a background stamp with an abstract pattern. I looked at my background stamps and decided Technique Junkie's Zen Waves would be perfect for this idea. I stamped on 3 shades of blue cardstock as well as a yellow and green and created this card. Then I simply added a perfect sentiment strip from Taylored Expressions to complete the card. I am so missing real hugs from my dear friends and grandkids, but until we can have the real thing, I will keep sending cards like this one.

WOW! Karen, this is just beautiful! Your colors pop and your use of the background stamp is amazing. Love it! I made the very same comment about missing hugs from kids and grandkids on my blog.
Sending cyber hugs your way.

Wonderful look. I haven't tried paper piecing. This seems like an easy way to try.
