Welcome to the Technique Tuesday blog hop! Today our theme is paper piecing. I have chosen the new Party Alphabet Dies to do a bit of piecing! These dies are a whopping 2 1/4″ high and so much fun to use on the front of a card. Here the first of two cards made with these dies.

And here is the second card. Notice anything?

You probably noticed that the HI from the Garden Green card stock was “pieced” back into the floral piece and the floral HI was “pieced into the Garden Green piece. It was a quick way to make two cards. That beautiful embossing folder is the Pressed Flowers embossing folder and the sentiment is from the Storybook Friends stamp set.
instructions for the Party Alphabet Dies cards
- Cut 2 Thick Basic White card bases 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ and score at 4 1/4″.
- Cut 2 Blackberry Bliss mats 5 3/8″ x 4 1/8″. Adhere to the front of each card base.
- Cut one piece of patterned paper from the Floral Impressions paper pack to 5 1/4″ x 4″ and die cut HI from the lower right corner.
- Cut one piece of Garden Green Paper 5 1/4″ x 4″ and die cut the Hi from the lower right corner.
- Adhere the floral paper to the card front WITHOUT the letters in place.
- Adhere the green letters into place on the floral paper.
- Run the green card stock WITHOUT the letters through the Pressed Flowers embossing folder and then adhere to the front of the card.
- Insert the floral letters into the green card front.
- Stamp 2 Hello friends sentiments on a 1/2″ strip of Basic White card stock with Blackberry Bliss ink. Adhere to the card front.
- Stamp the large flower from the Impressions Abloom stamp set in Blackberry Bliss on the inside of each card.
- Add a few Starburst Sequins to the front of each card.
