Striped Patterns {FIF #150}

Friday, January 10, 2014

 
 
I had the idea to try stamping this pattern for awhile.  My first attempt {above} turned OK, but not great.  I wasn't happy, obviously, with where the stamped stripes didn't match up.  I decided rather than waste it, I'd cut it up and create a new pattern.

The center image was stamped three times, cut apart, and layered together.

    Much better the second time, cuz it looks so festive the way the stripes are arranged. Love how you explained the process, and love the results!

    You've done it again! You always create the most fabulous stamped backgrounds, and I love the twist on this one. Very clever and a perfect color scheme for a masculine card!

    Love your new card, Kara!! Your eye really focuses on the orange stripes which are pointing on both sides to the orange cupcake holder. So well designed!!
