Rain or Shine...I was paper piecing today!

Two days ago I got an e-mail from MFT stamps (http://www.mftstamps.com/) announcing their "Who's that Girl" challenge so I thought...why not I will try it! I have several of these sets and have used them over and over!

The challenge required you to paper piece a card. I thought about what layout, papers, & stamp set I wanted to use while the rain poured down outside my window. I started with the retail therapy set but couldn't quite get all those little pieces to work to my satisfaction so at 9:00pm I started anew. The challenge had to be uploaded by 11pm my time...

I grabbed my rain or shine set and went to work! I am very happy with the way it turned out. I wish I looked this fashionable in a rain storm!!!

I looked at the samples the other ladies did and they are fantastic. You can check them out by searching the MFT gallery on http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/ using the code "MFTWTG25".

I also saw another challenge to use paper pleating today with MFT stamps so I may try my hand at that after I finish the cats pajama's challenge! Talk to you soon!
