This is the second of two cards using Certainly Celery, Choc. Chip and Cool Caribbean. The strip across the middle was an idea I cased from Cindy Haffner. Hers are much more detailed and totally gorgeous. Here's an example of one of hers:
The stripes on the bottom half of the card were made by cutting 1/8" pieces of cool caribbean and certainly celery.
edit: I made this card for a another challenge that a small group of friends and I are doing today, and then saw that it fit this challenge as well. The stripes on the bottom were all created from leftovers from a previous card, as well as the strip underneath the lattice. Even the top piece was a convenient leftover...albeit a larger one. tfl

Tosh, this is fantabulous! Love how you used these colors...they look great. That flower is wonderful and I esp love all the cute scallops---great job!
Beautiful card. Love the colors and all the scalloping - even on the flower petals - which connect everything on the card. Who would've thought to create homemade stripes? Wow!
