I did my paper piecing a little different as I didn't have the 3-d glue suggested in the tutorial video, so I cut out the largest whole elephant image (including hat), then layered it on my base with the Multipurpose Liquid Glue, next cut out the elephant head/trunk/hat and adhered that, and finally, the party hat! Other than that, I followed the tutorial substituting the tools I had from Stampin' Up!
It's fussy, detail-oriented work, but I loved the result! You can watch Mariska's tutorial on Splitcoaststampers.
Combining the Friday Mashup 3-D and color challenge with the sketch from Create with Connie & Mary, here is the finished card:

Loni, absolutely a fantastic card! I love that stamp set but struggle with it- thanks for inspiration to do the paper piecing with it. All of your details are amazing- the tickets hung with sequins, the amazing behind the image, the multiple layers, and boy you rocked the colors on this card, too! Thanks for playing with the Friday Mashup this week!
ReplyDeleteLori, I LOVE your card! I bought this set and never used it. Your card is very inspirational! The colors, paper piercing and details are fabulous! Congratulations on winning the FMU! You certainly earned it!
