PP438 - A Clean-and-Simple Challenge from Anne Marie

Hello stamping friends! Happy Easter to those who are celebrating today! Anne Marie here with a new challenge for you. I thought we could have some fun with a Clean-and-Simple (CAS) Paper Piecing Challenge. Stamps can be so fun to work with but sometimes you want to do something more than just coloring in the image. Paper Piecing is a great technique that will add some different patterns and texture to your stamped images, plus it’s a lot of fun. 

So get those scissors, patterned paper and stamps out and share your project with us. 

REMEMBER THIS IS CLEAN AND SIMPLE WEEK - THESE ARE THE RULES WE POST EVERY CAS CHALLENGE

What do we mean by Clean and Simple?

• Minimal layers and embellishments
• Plenty of open space, aka "white" space
• Simple and uncluttered

We can't wait to see what you create.  But first, let's take a look at what the Design Team has created for your inspiration!
