CAS Mix Up - April 2021 - second helpings!

I found myself paper piecing another bunny who really wanted to join the party at CAS Mix Up April 2021 challenge, too.  Poor guy will probably get the boot for not being quite CAS enough - but a little birdy told him to just go for it!  


This little closeup shows all the different PTI papers that went into
the piecing of this card!  Even the box [an MFT freebie when I bought this kit]
has two patterns, if you look carefully!


Have a wonderful Sunday, my friends!

CAS or not this is completely adorable. Not only does your craft space look pristine but your fussy cutting is meticulous. Those muted colors really lend themselves to this technique.

All those tiny little pieces, well done you, it looks fabulous. I don't know about anyone else but this is quite CAS enough for me. The clever use of just those 2 colours manage to keep it CAS. I love it, we are so lucky to have 2 of your wonderful cards in our gallery this month xx

What an adorable card Michele with pretty paper piecing. Now that's a lovely sentiment and a super cute card x. I am no CAS purist but I do know that I love this card x.

Oh that took patience, but certainly worth it.

Oh it's been a while since I've done paper piecing... maybe it's an idea for a LIVE? thanks again for your amazing inspiration and for the cuteness in my morning mailbox!

The paper pieced critters of this and previous cards are all adorable!!! And I love the soft and natural colors you chose for the paper piecing, Michele! Hope you're having a nice Sunday!

Bunny in a box - sweet as can be! Love the soft patterns!

Over the top cuteness! The box and those teeny tiny clouds are fantastic!

That little bird and bun are just the sweetest! What a wonderful creation! So funny, I have that paper too! I made my boys' First Communion invitations with them... Wow! I love how you fit the stripes perfectly and evenly on the bun...

OMGoodness, these two are way to cute paper pieced! Loving the box and the papers you used to paper piece with. They all coordinate so well together!
