Once again, I decided to play along with this month's Papertrey Ink Blog Hop. This month's challenge was another inspiration challenge, using this photo:
The photo left me feeling a little stumped at first. Then I realized that I could use my new Distressed Stripes stamp set. I had just bought On My Couch from an online friend and thought that a little striped couch would be adorable.... but would I get the set on time?
So I came up with this card:
I used PTI cardstock (pure poppy, stamper's select white, harvest gold), stamps (distressed stripes, modern wood mats, big & bold wishes), dies (edger #3, beautiful blooms II #1) and button. The twine is My Mind's Eye.
Then, on Friday, my On My Couch sets arrived in the mail!
So I made this card:
I used PTI cardstock (hawaiian shores, kraft, dark chocolate, pure poppy, stamper's select white), stamps (distressed stripes, On My Couch & On My Couch additions), dies (edger #3, mat stack #5).
So I guess it was two for one from me this time! :)
Thanks so much for stopping by!

Two wonderful cards Leigh! Love the striped couch. Your layouts on both are great.
Love both your cards today. Leigh!! The first one has so many awesome details and the diagonal stamping is very effective. The striped couch on the second one is just adorable.

You make the best cards! I lone these so much.
How can I pick just one? Love them both - love the colors.. I think my favorite is that in the second card, the way the mat lines up with the edgers die... its so aesthetically pleasing :-)
Love them both. So cool how you used the lines on the diagonal. And, we won't talk about your card using On My Couch.....just kidding, love that one too. Great idea to use as upholstery.
