Jigsaw Puzzle Pieces

I have joined a swap on UKS where we all do jigsaw pieces according to each persons chosen theme and then swap them so that we end up with a 12 x 12 jigsaw on our theme.


The theme for this one was supposed to be stitched and texture but obviously the poor woman never saw the stitching on the Dammit Doll - I have managed the texture bit though!
The theme for this piece is gypsies so I made a little gypsy caravan and backed it with 7Gypsies papers.
The theme for this piece was 'if it flies it has wings'. I made the beaded dragonfly and then a little BIA bound book with the story of The Dragonfly in it. The book is attached to the jigsaw piece with a magnet so it can be removed and read.

The theme for this piece was dragons. He was a lot friendlier looking in my head! I embossed him in red and black, added glitter paints and some gold paint, and a couple of beaded earrings with Chinese coins.



This one is for the theme pink....



Each person has picked a theme, this one is the sea.
This one is for my puzzle - the theme is time.
Flowers - I made a tiny book with embossed flowers on the pages.
The theme for this one is tears of a clown. Another tiny book with Peirott pictures inside.
