Papertrey Ink September Blog Hop








   Another amazing inspirational photo for you this month that we just know will bring out the very best in your creativity!  Look closely and there are so many directions to go in!  You can choose to focus on the colors, the stripes, or the repetition.  We look forward to seeing your creations! 
For card in this challenge I decided to start on my Christmas cards. The stripes in the picture  seemed to be the one thing I kept focusing on so I went with showcasing the lines and the way they intersect in the picture.



 

Supplies:
PTI-December YofF (Fussy cut),  Journaling line stamp from Mat Stack 1
MS White embossing powder, TH distressing inks Barn Door, Fired Brick, and Forest Moss
                                                    (small dauber used to color in stripes.)
Papertrey Ink Rustic Cream Paper.
Pearl Mist Spray on the poinsettia.
