You are awesome.


First......I can't get that song out of my head (Everything is Awesome)!  Has anyone seen The LEGO Movie yet?  If you have, then you know what song I'm talking about!  LOL  If not, feel free to check it out HERE.  Go ahead......it's catchy and I'll bet you will find yourself singing it later!

ANYWAY.......forward to my card post

I am really enjoying using stripes lately.  Trendy?  yes.   Fun?  yes.  I've been seeing stripe patterns everywhere that I can't wait to try out.  I believe I saw this pattern a while back on a decorative pillow so I thought I'd give it a try using On the Strip 2 from Neat & Tangled.

I started by randomly stamping the first stripe and used that as my building block for the pattern.  I found that if you get the stripe stamp perfectly straight on your block (I use a Martha Stewart footed block) then stamping these stripes is a breeze!

  9. Another killer card, Amy! This would look equally stunning as a horizontal design. I can't believe you stamped those so perfectly even with a footed MS thingie! Hugs, Darnell
