I still think paper piecing makes some of the best cards and scrapbook pages! This is adorable! I love fussy cutting...I find it relaxing. Thanks for the wonderful idea!
Nichol, I think this might be the cutest fall card I have ever seen. It brought back so many good memories of my mom. She was a quilter, she hand quilted bedspreads, coverlets and sampler quilts. This card reminds me of one of her fall samplers which looks very similar to your card. By the way, I have all of her quilts. There is so many that I have filled up three big cedar chests and the rest are in big zippered bags. I miss her. I thought for sure you were going to use that brown pattern paper with the little lines in it for the trunk of your trees. But the solid brown works good too, maybe even better so that there is some contrast with the trees. LOVE IT!
This was so wonderful to see. What an enormous difference it makes to have paper pieced instead of just coloring. Takes the stamp and scene from "another" to "spectacular". Thank you!
Nichol, your videos are just so wonderful! I have been subscribed and watching for over a year but don’t think I’ve commented in a long while. It is an absolute pleasure watching you create and I have learned so much from you. I have also subscribed to kits such as Simon’s and Spellbinders because of you. Nobody out there compares to you, especially in that you explain everything so well, give us details such as which Copics you are using, etc and even leave mistakes in when you (not very often!!) make them LOL You truly are an inspiration and I am so grateful for everything you share with us. God bless ❤️
you did an excellent job with a kit not all people found a quick connection to. i think that makes you a true artist, not just an average paint by number crafter.
Wonderful! You did it again, love it! Bought it, again, AND the great Santa you did for SSS. You are a fabulous talent Nicole, I love watching whatever you do! Blessings, Teri
Thank you, Nichol for a very cute card. I have not paper prieced in forever! I used the link from your blog to order this kit. So glad it wasn’t out of stock yet, as I am sure it will be soon! Thanks for the inspiration.
Nicole, Loved the card for one and it reminded me of your scrapbook days when you paper pieced. Loved watching you make the card come alive. Thank you for sharing your amazing talent with us. Have a blessed day. ❤️
OMG This is so cute!! I LOVE paper piecing and appreciate it because I have hoarded sooooooo much pp over the years, it's always nice to actually use it ;)
Wow... I love what you did with this set ! I love the paper piecing .. Actually quite enjoy the process of cutting and pasting of all the fiddley little bits.. I find it to be a therapeutic almost zen like activity.. As long as I am not under a deadline that is .. Now I can see so many possibilities for the kit .. I really enjoyed seeing this come together.... THANKS !! :D
You are brave for sure. I can not cut a straight line to save my life. I’ve tried fussy cutting up to the line and have lopped off a foot or an arm before so it’s just not for me. I love the colors you chose and the patterns of the paper.
Great card, Nichol! I always have trouble finding smaller image pattern paper! So disappointing. Sometimes you can get the pattern in 6x6 sizes but not always, and I want a larger sheet. This set looks like it was meant for your design.
Such a great card. I do have one question..is there a die for the sentiment? I don't think I could fussy cut the sentiment without completely destroying it. Thanks for sharing.
I must be the only crafter out there who LOVES to fussy cut! Lol! I love this card
I SAY I don't like it but I sure have been doing a lot of it over the last 6 weeks. I might have stop saying it! LOL

I totally agree!

I love that you have your mom's quilts. ❤️ And I was going to use the brown patterned paper but I was afraid it was too busy! ;)

Glad you like them!

average paint by number crafters are good too....lol
Thank you SO much! Paint by number... that reminds me I haven't done one of those since I was a kid! Those were SO fun! ;)
Wonderful! You did it again, love it! Bought it, again, AND the great Santa you did for SSS. You are a fabulous talent Nicole, I love watching whatever you do!
Blessings,

It is tricky! I don't do it often!
Love the card!!!
Thank you Barbara!

Lovely!!
Thank you!
Such a great card. I do have one question..is there a die for the sentiment? I don't think I could fussy cut the sentiment without completely destroying it. Thanks for sharing.
The sentiment is stamped on the patterned paper. No way would I attempt fussy cutting! ❤️
Love it xx
Thank you so much!
I don’t fussy cut either. I don’t have the gift!
😉
Did you fussy cut the trunks for the trees?
Yes, from brown cardstock.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you Shannon!
Can you refer me to classes in “paper piecing”...the how to’s?
