With this card I paper pieced. First I stamped the flower/heart on Whisper White card stock. Then I stamped again on River Rock and the Ruby Red dotted piece from the Ginger Blossom Designer Paper. I cut out the flower from the river rock and adhered it over the flower stamped on the whisper white. I also cut out the three hearts and adhered them over the hearts on the Whisper White. That's paper piecing!!
