Inspired by {Paper and Stitch}

This week Angie has directed us to the Paper and Stitch blog where I fell in love with this Valentines day inspired wall display, and said to my self oh, you could do any shape and do it like a patchwork. (that is what I see when I look at this image seen below) so, I started with this Sizzix Tree die.

 The sentiment on this one is from Stampin Up Joy  set. the textured paper is unknown and after I cut the tree I then cut it a second time with a Simon Says Stamp stitched rectangle die to give it that one more detail, the green in the embedded part is from Neenah, the sentiment banner die is from Lawn Fawn, I did cut off the left side fishtails. The ink of all these sentiment was Versafine Onyx Black. I have a page protector clear pocket that I have small scale Christmas prints in for die cutting tiny pieces from so all those squares came out of that pocket.

 now this one was done because, I had these negative and spare pieces and I love the texture of that paper that is the tree on this one and did not want to cover it up, I have been hoarding it since the store where I found it closed and I only have a few sheets left so, I really use all the pieces when I do cut one. The base on this one is some Stardream Opal (shimmery cardstock)
The sentiment on this one is from Impress and it was cut with a Hero Arts tall & cute tag die, the brad is unknown. the green mat was cut with a waffle flower Lacy Layers A7 die. This card is A7 in real life.

 This one I used the largest Hero Arts nesting heart die to cut the heart and the Simon Says Stamp stitched squares ( smallest die) to do the quilt blocks. This one is 6" square in real life. that sentiment is from a very old SU set called Joy. The red corrugate is from Fancy Pants the textile print is from Kasier Kraft. That green for the sentiment banner I think just might be a scrap of PTI Moss.

 So, it was one of those third times a charm things, I think this fourth card really nails that IC the best So, it will probably be the one uploaded to the gallery. And I will probably end up making a few more of these style cards as I do have other "heart" Christmas sentiments and tons of scraps I can die cut like this as bitty squares. The woven texture sheet is from Die Cuts With a View, the textile heart is from Kaiserkraft. The Impress sentiment was cut with a Spellbinders labels 58 die.
