I wanted to use Simon Hurley's Candy Stripe die again and make it into a plaid, so here's what I came up with for my brother-in-law's birthday card this year.
supplies: kraft, burnt orange, tangerine cardstock, Candy Stripe die, Lil Inker Boxed Up Birthday die, Honey Bee Fall Bouquet maple leaves colored with distress inks
What an easy way to get a plaid background! Just cut this stripe die twice, and reverse one of them before layering them. I also cut the sentiment die twice in 2 colors and off-set it when I placed it on its backing. The leaves were already sitting on my desk, so this came together pretty quickly once I decided on my colors.
Have a great day!
Great colors, pretty card!
