Inkspired Showcase Stripes

 Inkspired Showcase Stripes

Challenge No. 140

Hi all. Welcome to the challenge.

The idea for using an inlay technique for my stripes came first. The ideal die was tricky as the choice was limited. I have used the strap die from the All dressed Up set. The length of the strap determined the size of the card which is 5x 7 inches. 

I first cut seven rows from white card stock and adheres the piece to a backing of white with a narrow border. Fresh Freesia, Highland Heather, So Saffron, Just Jade, Soft Succulent and Pale Papaya die cuts where inlaid into the white panel. The splatter is light Highland Heather.

The sentiment from Pansy Patch fit perfectly on the narrow die cut stripe and the inside sentiment is also from Pansy Patch. The pansy dies were fun to put together. The colour combinations for this set is huge. I used Highland Heather, Gorgeous Grape, Garden Green, Evening Evergreen and white with a light So Saffron blend.

Enjoy more contributions to the hop. Next to visit is Teresa Irwin and until next time take care of yourselves.
