Paper Pieced Bauble for the Tuesday Technique Bog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Technique Tuesday Blog hop where I am sharing the paper piecing technique and making a trio of cute cards paper- pieced bauble Christmas cards.

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the paper pieced bauble cards, you will need:

Pool Party card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Night of Navy card – 5¼” by 3⅝”
Basic White card – 5⅛” by 3½”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” for the inside
Bermuda Bay, Night of Navy & Fresh Freesia card – 4⅛” by 3”
Scrap Basic White and Bumblebee card

I ran the smaller Basic White panel through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine with the Timeworn Text Embossing Folder. I used Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to add the embossed panel to the Night of Navy layer and then to the Pool Party card front.

Using the detailed bauble die, I cut the bauble from the 4⅛” by 3” panels of Bermuda Bay, Night of Navy and Fresh Freesia card taking care to keep all the pieces together.

Taking the outline of the bauble, I used liquid adhesive to glue a scrap piece of Basic White card to the back.

I carefully pieced together the parts of the Christmas Tree adding a dot of glue behind each piece to hold it in position.

Using another colour, I added the pieces to the rest of the bauble in the same way.

The small star at the top of the bauble was die cut from the scrap Bumblebee card and added in the same way.

A length of Silver Elegant Trim was threaded through the top of the bauble and adhered on the back with Sellotape.

The bauble was then added to the card front using Dimensionals.

The sentiment from the Christmas to Remember stamp set was stamped in Night of Navy ink onto scrap Basic White card and fussy cut out using Paper Snips. It was added to the card front with liquid glue.

To finish the card, I added a bow using the same Elegant Trim and a trio of Pastel Pearls.

Using the left-over pieces, I made another 2 cards.

I hope you like them.
