A total ‘case” of paper piecing!
I recently saw a version of this stamp done with some paper piecing and I knew I had to try it. Stamping Bella Oddballs and Gnomes are stamps that I do go back and color again and again. So I apologize if ya’ll get tired of them! Keep reading to see my inspiration and my version.
Here is the inspiration for my card. I saw it on Instagram, done by a woman named Simone. HERE is a link to hers!
I stamped my image on Hammermill and also on this cool Craft consortium paper, and fussy cut the shell pieces.
After I glued down the pieces, I decided I did not like the way it looked. So I covered the whole shell section with 3D Crystal Lacquer. It served two purposes: one being it made the surface smooth and second it gave it shine so it looks wet.

So cute! Great paper piecing. I do love the coating that you added to the shell. It really makes the shell pop. Thanks for sharing!
