Paper Piecing and Happy Easter!!

         Over at Phindy's Place, the challenge on Friday was to paper piece. 
 This is a digi, called Sudsy Suzy. I paper pieced everything!
 (Except Suzy herself and the bubbles).  The pink base is Gina K from her Romance assortment. The blue dp is the same Forever Flowers. I don't recall the pink print. It may be Melon Mambo. The white is Gina K Pure Luxury.  I added some ribbon and some Primas. I colored with Copics.
 I cut the kitty out of a wood grain paper,(SU-Autumn Meadow)  the tub and rug are SU Forever Flowers.The claw feet, slippers and wine glass is out of a metallic silver paper.
Disregard the flock on the kitty. I didn't realize there was extra on him when I took the picture.

Hope you enjoyed my paper piecing!!
Everyone have a Happy Easter!! 
 I have to work, so no Easter Dinner for me...  ;o(
We are going to order out for lunch, however.  My Mom is home in Wausau, but the neighbor's invited her over for Brunch.  My daughter's are both out of town this weekend. That's what happens being  a Nurse.  I'm used to working holidays.

Hi Cindy!

This card is so cute! I haven't done paper piercing but after looking at this card you have inspired me to check it out. You have also inspired me to go soak in a hot bath, hopefully it will ease some of this arthritis!
