"Coloring" with Designer Series Paper

This is a set of cards that I made using the In The Moment stamp set from the Stampin' Up! Jan/June 2022 mini catalog. I used the Paper Piercing technique to do some of the "coloring" on these images.

First, I stamped the image on a piece of Basic White card stock. Then I stamped part of the image on different pieces of designer series paper.

I used my Paper Snips to cut out different parts of the image.

Then I glued those pieces to the image on the white card stock.

Finally, I finished coloring the image using my Stampin' Blends. I also used paper piecing for her top - but I would suggest NOT using black paper the first time you try this technique. It was very difficult to see the outlines of the stamped imagine when cutting it out.

Below is the final card. It is really cute in real life! Earlier this week, I posted a video that shows you how to cut and score the card stock to make this card. You can see that video and details for making the card BY CLICKING HERE. I also explain the paper piecing technique in that video.

Here is the same card, made using different Designer Paper.
