Stripes

The OLW #69 (One Layer Wednesday) challenge this week is to use stripes.  I really like the neatness and simplicity of stripes, especially for backgrounds like this.  I made this background stamp using a cut-up old hot water bottle.  Waste not, want not, as my Grandma used to say!

    Excellent - a girl after my own heart, using 'found' objects :-)

    Aren't you clever with your homemade stamp!

    I love that sort of background and I have a Stampin' Up! stamp that is almost identical.

    Love those pretty flowers!

    Great job on the challenge and thanks for playing along with OLW69!
