Hello Sunshine!

This image is Elaine Cox's Thumbelina. She's super adorable. You can get her individually or from sheet 5, plate #46. Though I have been in the midst of many wonderful Halloween cards lately, I came across this image and had to just stop and make a late summery color card with it. The Hello Sunshine saying is just perfect for summer here in Texas!

Paper Piecing with Thumbelina

Stamp: Sweet Pea Stamps - Elaine Cox's "Thumbelina", Plate #46

For this card I used a technique called 'paper piecing'. I stamped the image several times on patterned paper and then cut out pieces and layered them.

I only used ONE Copic marker on this project. E70 for a little shadowing. And, a Spica glitter pen in Sand. The rest is all paper!!
