It's time for Trend Week at
Just Us Girls and Angie has chosen a great trend for us.
Stripes can add so much to a card whether as the background, a strip along the side or as part of the image. For me it was background all the way.
I knew I wanted to use this stripe from a paper pack gifted to me by Nancy. I cut an oval from Spellbinders Hemstitch to show off the Altenew flower colored with Zigs and the PTI sentiment. I liked this so much I started pulling out other striped paper to make a few more.
How will you use stripes on your card? The Design Team and our guest designer
Betty Jacobson have some wonderful inspiration for you. Make a card for our challenge and you have a chance at being a guest designer.
I hope to see your card in our gallery.
