It’s release day over at Avery Elle so that means a designer blog hop (starting at the Avery Elle Blog) to showcase all the fabulous new products available right now over in the Avery Elle store!
This release is full of fun stamps and awesome die collections so there’s sure to be something for everyone! Today I’m, featuring a sweet little set I designed called Windmill. I had so much fun coming up with this set and I hope you like it as much as I do!!!
I decided a long time ago that this would be a perfect set to use with a paper-piecing technique. I used my favourite paper pad of all time, the Everyday Collection and created a kind of patchwork effect using all the little scraps I’ve been holding onto forever!! I stamped out the images I wanted to include onto different patterns and then die cut them using the co-ordinating dies. A GREAT die collection that partners with this stamp set perfectly is the Picket Fence die set. I used the grassy border, picket fence and cloud dies to create my little countryside scene. The path is from the Cityscape collection from the last release.
The sails of the windmill actually turn thanks to a wee brad (crikey – haven’t used one of those in a while!!).
Supplies used:
Your next stop on the hop is the gorgeous Heather Campbell – make sure to leave her some love on your way!!
