patchwork creatures

Hello there - I write this in a warm house - wow - it makes such a difference to have heating - fingers crossed the rodent (s) that caused the damage have bit the dust!! Otherwise there will be more problems to come I suspect!

Tonight I have a patchwork card to share with you in response to the latest challenge over at Paperartsy. I have used a layout very similar to that used by Jennie ....but the main inspiration for my card is by helen-chilton. My card really looks nothing like either of these though! I used those fabulous creatures from Elenazinski.

These guys are fabulous - love them to pieces!!!! And I love them only partially stamped too - aren't they cool????


My method is very simple - I cut 9 4x4cm pieces, stamped coloured and assembled them! Not rocket science but cute I think! What do you think?

I'd like to enter this into the squares-and-grids-challenge over at paperartsy.

Big hugs and a happy Friday night to you!

Rachel x

    Great patchwork card Rachel Very different. Oh I can fully undersatand how you fell about a warm house. When our pump broke down we were lucky in that we still had the woodburners but the bathroom, dining room bedrooms were flipping cold! We take central heating so much for granted these days don't we? Hope the offending rodents are well and truly "gone"!!! Christine x

    Golly - it sounds as though you've been going through the (chilly) mill - glad to hear the heating is back on.

    This is such a clever creation - tickling the eye with all those brilliant little monster details. Love the colours too.
