As soon as I read Stripes for the challenge this morning I knew I wanted to do something with this ticking stamp.
5 3/4" base, edges sponged with Antique Linen. A white square the same size, sponged with Antique Linen, edges distressed and sponged with Fired Brick.
I used the RubberNecker Striped Background - Faded Jeans on some Basic Grey off-white paper. I cut it into 1 3/4" squares and stitched them all with blue thread, then distressed the edges and stuck them to the base.
Hero Arts sentiment stamped with black on some Fired Brick ticking; I cut it with oval Nestabilities, distressed the edges and sponged with red, adding dark blue snaps before layering onto a blue oval and popping up on foam.
For extra stripes I stamped and cut out 3 red candles, and added Liquid Pearl flames (Cantaloupe).
