Perfectly paired...

It's was a perfectly pair weekend!

I pulled out this gorgeous paper and decided to try and use it as

I have been with many other designer papers lately.

The patchwork/guilting technique. 

I cut my card a regular sized A2 then used cut strips of the paper

at 1 1/2" each.  Take your adhesive and add pieces, they will hang

over the base of the card.  Just cut away the excess when you have the

card filled.  It's like a little puzzle and a great way for you to use

up your pieces of small amounts of paper.  

You can also cut your strips smaller if you like. 

This paper gives me Hawaiian vibes....

I used the aqua painter to color in the pear with coordinating ink tones.

Have you tried this technique yet?

If so,  send me off your pics!
