Diagonal Stripes on Green with Cream

A very simple layout, made interesting with bold colors, texture, and pattern.

Card details:
  • Card stock is Papertrey Ink (PTI) terra cotta tile (rusty red), dark chocolate (brown), prairie grass (muted green), and vintage cream.
  • Embossing folder is The Paper Studio woodgrain (retired).
  • Die is the large wide banner from PTI sketched shapes.
  • The striped background is The Stamp Market diagonal pinstripe, stamped with PTI canyon clay (orangey brown) ink.  The stamped color surprised me by matching the (much redder) terra cotta tile card stock, instead of the canyon clay card stock, when stamped onto prairie grass card stock.  Color layering is always an adventure!
  • The sentiment "just for you" is from Stampabilities card phrases, and the distressed star is from PTI military stars (retired), stamped with PTI dark chocolate and prairie grass ink, then restamped with Versamark and clear heat embossed.
Created for Operation: Quiet Comfort.
