I needed to get my creative juices flowing and found quite a few fun challenges in my recent search. This striped card was made for the Addicted to CAS #221 (code word Stripes) and the Fusion Card challenge posted May 26, using the sketch. I am also entering the Tic Tac Toe Challenge #164, (stripes, circle, free).
All the patterned paper I used was from My Favorite Things 6x6 Party Time Paper Pad. The stitched envelope and heart dies are both from Poppystamps. I cut two envelopes from patterned paper and used a small section of the whiter stripe paper to line the envelope with before I folded it and glued the flaps in place. The circle dies are from Stampin' Up! Stitched Shapes. Cardstock is all from Stampin' Up!: Real Red, Soft Sky, Whisper White, Watermelon Wonder (I think), and Island Indigo.
Assembly was simple and straightforward. I used either foam adhesive, Bearly Arts glue or a tape runner to adhere everything. Sentiment was printed from my computer using a favorite font of mine called Libel Suit.
Janet this is a super sweet card. Love how you've been inspired by our challenge. Thanks for joining us at Fusion Card Challenge. Tristan DT.

ReplyDeleteJanet, thanks for the ear worm! That song is going to be going around in my head all night :-) What a sweet little envelope and I love how the colors on the stripes echo the stripes that you used to anchor it. Gorgeous card. So glad you joined us at Addicted to CAS this week
