The challenge this week is non-traditional Christmasâ¦use a stamp or die in a way other than it was intended. I chose a Valentines stamp by Art Impressions. I created a stencil of the dress so that I could cut it from Christmas pattern paper and paper piece.
This scene reminds me of one of my first Christmas memories. My mom was standing on a stool putting a fragile glass ornament on the tree and she fell off the stool and the ornament broke in her hand. A trip to the doctor resulted in stitches.

Great paper piecing of the Christmas dress - and backstory to the card. Your poor mother, glass breaking in the hand is no fun. All the pearly decor on the tree is fantastic.

This is why I love paper piecing. Her dresses are perfect for either of these celebrations!! I love it.
