Christmas Stampin' All Year Long

I hope you're all enjoying your holiday weekend. Today is challenge day over at the CSAYL blog! The challenge for today is:

USE THE PAPER PIECING TECHNIQUE

I was uber-excited when I found out what the challenge was. Paper piecing is by far my most favorite stamping technique. It's so so so simple to do, and it really pulls a project together. No messy inks, powders or fancy folds. Just stamp and cut - easy peasy!

Here's what I came up with...
Every penguins clothing should match the card they're on - don't you think?

The adorable image is by Whipper Snapper and the papers are by SU.

Looking for more inspiration? Check out the CSAYL challenge blog to see what the rest of the design team came up with and leave a link to your creation. We had lots of great entries last week for our "Traditional Colors" challenge, but I thought that this one by Peggy was just beautiful!

Can't wait to see what everyone comes up with this week!
Until next time...

Hey Mackenzie! Your penguin looks like he knows how to match his clothing very well! He is such a cutie! I love paper piecing too! It can jazz up a plain image really nicely! Awesome job with this week's challenge. It really is beginning to feel like Christmas, huh!
