Random Inspiration Challenge #1: Stamping and paper-pieced accents

Title: blessed family

It's becoming very time-consuming running two blogs simultaneously, so in order to leave more time for scrapbooking and hosting scrap-challenges, I decided to start posting challenges here at my main blog.

Welcome to the first international scrapbook challenge! I hope you can play along;)

Here's the scoop:

• Who can participate? Anyone, anywhere (international entries accepted)
• Theme: stamped and/or paper pieced accents.
• Format: traditional scrapbook pages, cards, altered projects, art journal entries...anything!
• Where/how to submit?  Please leave one link to where we can see your creation (whether personal blog or online gallery. However, please do not leave links to sites where one has to become a member to view the images). If your comment does not appear immediately, it's because I have turned on comment moderation.
• Due date: April 20 (12 p.m. EST)
• Prize: a very humble Scrappy Cat acrylic stamp set (Spring Silhouettes).

About my layout blessed family: 

I did this page for a Hero Arts prompt which was "Home and/or Mother's Day". I got carried away stamping so many different paper-pieced accents, that I got the idea to make a challenge out of stamping. I stamped on patterned paper to give my pieces a bit more pattern. Some of the pieces (the bird house and home) are glued onto chipboard for added dimension. This piece is extremely 3D--the white picket fence is wired from real wood, thus scanning was not easy. The background paper I made using white cardstock and washes of two watercolors. Before applying the paint, I used a ruler and a white crayon to make the sun rays. When the watercolors are applied the areas where the crayon was drawn, resist the color, leaving white sunburst rays. I further stitched and sewed with sewing machine additional sun rays to give the page a more detailed finish.
