The current challenge at Seize the Birthday is Stripes.
To create the stripes for this card, I die cut the My Favorite Things “Striped Sentiment Strip Cover” from PTI’s True Black cardstock. I adhered it to a white card, and embossed the greeting from Papertrey Ink’s “Wishes Come True” in white. I didn’t glue everything down completely so I could tuck in some bright blue flowers stamped and die cut with Papertrey’s “Warm Regards” stamps and dies.
I always find lining up two and three part stamps a challenge, but these flowers from the “Warm Regards” set are among the easiest I’ve found. I love the bright blue against the black and white.
This is a two week challenge, and I LOVE stripes so I’m pretty sure I’ll be back with another entry before the challenge ends.
Striking card! The bold black stripes and the beautiful blue flowers work so well together! Thank you for joining us at STB!
It’s amazing how the stripes really set off the blue flowers and you have a great photo for the SPSH too!
Your choice of black & white stripes really do set the blue flowers off at their best. Another really nice card.
Beautiful colors with the blue popping off the stripes! I like these dramatic blooms very much!
Dynamic! Eager to see your second masterpiece!
PS. Like your new header!
Cheers~
This is gorgeous, Karen! I love that cornflower blue against the black stripes and love how you tucked the flowers!! Hugs, Darnell
Very stylish! There’s something about black and white that makes other colours really pop. This is just lovely …
Oh, I like that bright blue against the black & white, too! So lovely!
