La La Land GD card ~ Paper Piecing

Good morning ladies,

I can't believe it's December tomorrow,

I'm busy putting out tree up today.

Really need to get organised with everything else.

Can't believe I've been  and bought some crimbo cards ~ Yes I know, it's terrible.

I've also made quite a few Christmas cards too, but some of those went as samples.

I have another La La Land card to share today.

The inspirational theme this week is

PAPER PIECING

I hardly ever do paper piecing, but I think it works really well with this gorgeous girl.

 I have used,

La La Land ~ Christmas Lantern Marci

LOTV ~ Christmas Sentiment Tags & Christmas Icons

Marianne ~ English Rose & Snowflake

DooHickey ~ Rose Leaf

Cheery Lynn ~ Deco Corner, I have heat embossed this.

Noor! ~ Embossing edge ~ used as a hinge

Thank you for popping by
