Today is day 2 of the PTI festivities. Nichole spotlighted the stamp designers – and each designer provided a free digital image! The challenge was to create a card using one of those free digi images. I chose to use Lizzie Jones’ award ribbon.
For this project, I wanted to paper piece the image. To start, I isolated the ribbon image and resized it larger. I put 4 of them on a piece of paper and printed it on regular paper. Then I cut pieces of carstock and pattern paper to cover a section of each image and printed it again. Finally, cut out and assemble.
For those of you who are visual, maybe this will help (click for larger view):
Oh, and one last detail, I did add a little Copic marker to the ribbon head to help give it a little shading.
Thanks for taking a peek!

Love how you’ve embossed the bottom layer on your card, and printed on patterned paper. Very clean and graphic card. Fantastic!
