Paper Piecing

Morning bloggers on yet another wet day.  This is a quick and easy card I have made for a 21st party we are going to today but it is my first attempt at paper piecing.   I was a bit weary of how the paper piecing was going to come together at first but am quite pleased with the finished effect.  I have paper pieced the shopping bags.

For my card I have used:

Whiff of Joy image coloured with promarkers
Papermania papers and ribbon and sentiment
MS doily punch, Marianne Creatables flower and circle nesties

I am entering my card into the following challenges:
