Lasting Memories Layout Challenge 40 - Paper Piecing. Baby Shower 12x12 Layout

Hello!!  Hope you are all enjoying your weekend!!  A little longer weekend for us in the U.S. (Yahoo).   Well before you head out for your BBQ or Family get together... take a minute to check out the Lasting Memories Layout Challenge # 40 - All About Paper Piecing!! See what the fabulous Design Team members have to share with you.  Hopefully you will make some time for some crafting and Join Us!! 
When I think of Paper Piecing... I think of layering paper onto stamped images (to make it pop), layering paper onto diecut images or simply layering random diecuts or many different papers to create a cluster or background layering effect.  I use Paper Piecing on pretty much all of my layouts.  I chose the DIECUT layering method as my focus for my layout.  The baby bottles and baby rattles have little bits and pieces that I had to layer on to complete the image.  In general the whole layout is paper pieced.  Here is what I created:

This was my 2nd baby shower for my Daughter over 8 years ago... that we didn't know she was going to be a Girl.  Thus the blue and pink and the lovely colors of GREEN and YELLOW.  Many many things... believe it or not... come in those colors for babies.  We used every single item.  :-)  Hope you enjoy and come join us at Lasting Memories.!!!!

I am also entering my layout into the Throwback Thursday Challenge with My Creative Time where you had to use an "Older" cricut cartridge (I used New Arrival & George/Basic shapes) and incorporate Green and Yellow somewhere on the project. 

Thanks for stopping by!!
