It's Lisa here - I'm going to show you how to paper piece. I usually paper piece stamped images. I have a TON of cards and layouts on my blog with paper pieced images - here is the step by step
First I stamped directly on my layout - where I wanted the final image to be.

Pick your pattern paper that you want to piece together on the final image - stamp the image on those papers also.

Cut out the pieces from your pattern paper that you want to use - The bottom piece will be covered up, so you don't have to cut all the little pieces off of that.

Glue down your base layer on the final stamped image

Glue down your next layer

Glue down your final layer and you are finished!

Finished layout with my 2 paper pieced owls.

You can also choose to paper piece an embellishment that you don't stamp. You can paper piece your own creation on your page (cars, flowers, owls, etc). I personally like how precise you can be with a stamp, but that's me!
Can't wait to see all your paper pieced creations!
LOve to paper piece and add dimensional dote to make it really pop. Thanks for the tutorial.
