Hangin’ with my Peeps

Hi everyone!  I have a card to share that I made for this month’s release with My Favorite Things. Somehow it never made it to my blog.

Sitting here…

Isn’t that a GREAT sentiment? 🙂 

I went way overboard on the paper-piecing.  (I was seriously questioning my own sanity.)  The entire thing is paper-pieced.  I even cut between the slats on the bench so that the background (wallpaper) MFTCUwould show through the spaces.  The only parts I actually colored were the skin, chicks and bench, and even those were all cut out and assembled.  

I like the end result, but it was definately labor-intensive. 

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a great day!
