One of the card challenges this week is paper piecing. Can someone just confirm what this is?

I undertand it to be stamping your image onto patterned paper and on on plain card and then sort of decoupaging the patterened paper stamped image onto the plain one.

Am i right in this?

Looking at the design team cards it is hard to see this.

Claire thats exactly right. You can decoupage the patterend paper pieces using foam pads or just stick them on without rasing. Both ways give great effects ^_^

you can also print an image or use a transparent paper to draw your image. Then cut and rebuilt your image the way you like. By using foam, you add a 3d effect

I do alot of paper piecing (cards and 12x12). A few of my pages are actually in the gallery.
