Time for me to play with some “stripe” stamps that have been in my stash for ages!. I created background in Distress “Vintage Photo” on a sand-colored card scrap using three of the stripe stamps in a Stamping’ Up! set called “Perfect Plaids”. I then stamped over these stripes with another Stamping’ Up! stamp from the “Still Life Stem’s set, using Archival “Jet Black”. I watercolored the flowers with Distress markers and matted the image on coordinating red and sand-colored card. I die cut a phrase from Gold metallic card using my new Sizzix “vacation script” dies and this card is the result:
