Less is More - Week 54 - One Layer Stripes

This week's challenge over at Less is More is a bit tricky!!! They want us to make a card which is one layer with STRIPES............. hmmmmm....


It's been a long time since I've used these but managed to dig one out of a heap and it's a paint shade card - usually called paint chips in the States - now it has to be one layer so I couldn't just add it to my card so to be a bit sneaky I cut it up into varying widths, stuck it onto card and then scanned it into my computer!!!! (Hope this is allowed!) lol  This was then printed out and made into a DL card. I've inked my SU Wonderful Words stamp with Dusty Concord DI.

Thanks for dropping by. All your comments are appreciated.
