Voila

Today's fun card uses the retired set Viola.  I did a technique called Paper Piecing.  I stamped the chef onto DSP and then cut out the pieces I wanted.  That is how his pants are herringbone and his chef coat polka dot!  He seems such a happy guy!  Can't you just hear him singing?  His raised eyebrow makes me smile.  So much attitude in that one detail.


This is also a different fold.  I made a 1 1/2" lip to fold over the card.  The card is held closed by the scallop oval.  Here's the inside of the card.

Stamp: Viola
Card stock: Wild Wasabi, Basic Black , Whisper white, Night and Day DSP
Inks: Stazon, Wild Wasabi marker, Basic Gray marker, Daffodil delight marker, Blush Blossom marker
Punches: Scallop Oval, Medium oval, small oval, ticket corner
Accessories/Tools: black brads,dimensionals, Blender pen, Stamp-a-majig

I really like the Wild Wasabi and the Basic Black together.  It did take some time to cut out his pants and jacket, but I really like the way he turned out! 

Thanks for stopping in.  Happy wishes for you!
