Valentine's Day Stripes

Hi all,

Today’s card shows the perfect use for all those little scraps of patterned paper that you just can’t bear to part with. 

I started out with Gina K. Designs red card stock.  I then glued onto a white piece of paper all those little strips you see there, left overs from other projects, and created my own patterned paper.  I inked the edges and added it to the card front.  Finally, I stamped the sentiment from Valentine’s Sayings by Hero Arts with Rhubarb Stalk Memento ink and used my circle dies to cut it out and the scalloped circle mat.  Finally I used my corner chomper to round the corners.  Very simple card, but that strip of different patterned papers gives the card plenty of interest.

Here’s a closer shot of the sentiment and some of those strips of paper.

I hope you enjoyed today’s project.  Thanks so much for stopping by!
