PTI 7th Anniversary--Stripes--and a Few More Challenges




I have several cards today, the result of another crafting frenzy.  All of these cards will be entered at the PTI 7th Anniversary Stripes Challenge.  My first card is also for the sketch/color scheme recipe challenge.



Can you see the stripe made of paper, inside the die cut circle?






My next two cards use this week's ColourQ cQc #228 colors.  The first card is also for WPlus9 Birthday Celebration Step it Up Challenge.  I used the sketch from Retro Sketches #101.  All the paper is from PTI as is the Striped Impression Plate.




I love this week's colors and wanted to make another striped card, this one using Distressed Stripes.







For my next two cards, I used rotated versions of the sketch above, as well as this color scheme.  I made a plaid pattern using Super Stripes in all the colors above on a piece of card stock.  Then, I cut the pieces I needed to make two cards.





I like how they look together.





Last up is my favorite of the day.



Thanks for Visiting

  4. I love that whenever I come to your blog I get a plethora of eye candy!! The paper stripes peeking out on the first card are so cool especially with the stitching. The star card makes me happy - stars! Yay! (Not to mention the distressed stripes are pretty cool…) And your plaid just rocks!

  7. My head is swimming with all the loveliness you have shared today. It pays to have the right color paper and ink. Makes following the recipe so much easier. Oh, and that plaid is to die for.

  8. You've been so busy having a lovely time lately and we benefit by getting to see all your lovely cards! I really like the first one on kraft with a partial circle cut out. It is just so fabulous and those strips of paper almost look like leather in there. Just wonderful! I also really like the Wish Big striped card. It's all great stuff.

  22. I'm catching up on all your many card-filled posts, and all I can say is WOW! Stunner after stunner after stunner. I cannot believe how many amazing cards you were able to create for all the PTI challenges AND that you made some for other challenges as well. This last card was one of my very favorites, but I loved so many of the last 20 or so cards you've made.
