Hello and welcome to the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop where we are sharing something we have been working on. When I saw the Petals of Beauty Dies, especially the large leafy die, my immediate thought was ‘paper piecing’ and that is what I have used to make my card.
To recreate the paper pieced leafy spray card, you will need:
Pool Party card base – 8 ¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” Secret Sea card – 4⅞” by 3⅜” Basic White card – 5¼” by 4” Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” for the inside Scrap Fresh Freesia, Berry Burst, Pool Party & Secret Sea
Using the Textured Notes Dies, I die cut a decorated rectangle from the 5¼” by 4” panel of basic White card.

I die cut the leafy spray from scrap pieces of Fresh Freesia, Berry Burst, Pool Party & Secret Sea using the large die from the Petals of Beauty dies. A Take Your Pick Tool was used to free all the pieces from the die, one colour at a time, taking care to keep the leaves in the correct position.

The Secret Sea outline leafy die cut was then adhered to the die cut Basic White rectangle. At this point I realised it would have been a lot easier if I had adhered double sided adhesive sheet to the back of each scrap piece…….. don’t you love hindsight!
