Default Made it, now what?

Ok, I hope Im not the only one who does this but..........

Im reading and learing all the time on here and I came across a blog, or intructions on paper piecing. I know Ive tried it before with just layering the images but this is the first time I read where you stamp your image then restamp it on pattern paper and piece it on top. I thought HOW COOOOL.
So I look around my stamp collection, trying to find something that would work with that technique and came up with this:
Trouble is now.....what kind of layout could I use with this...what kind of card...etc.
Is there anywhere where you can view different card sketches to get ideas?

Super cute! I would use it for a "relax" card or a "cheers to you" or something like that.

I agree that using a sketch would be a great way to incorporate this image onto a card. You could also do a search in the gallery for paper piecing and see ideas of other cards using this technique.

sketch challenge 48 uses ovals, here's the link to that gallery

I would do something like this and add 2 lemon slices at the bottom of the oval.
