September Papertrey Bloghop

Happy Sunday! I hope your weekend has been a good one. Today is also the 25th of the month so that means it is time for another Papertrey Bloghop

This is the photo we were to use for inspiration

This is what I came up with

This one was definitely a challenge for me. All I saw was stripes so I made my own patterned paper using Photoshop and incorporated the colors into the rest of the card. I also used this months Year of Flowers image Morning Glories and this months Sketch For You To Try again. There is still time for you to play along too.

The sentiment is from Fillable Frames #2 ,tiny embossed dots, a hibiscus button and some machine stitching finishes it off.
I look forward to seeing what everyone else comes up with now. I hope the rest of your day is a great one and as always thanks for stopping by.

Love your interpretation. I too think this was a hard challenge. Love the colors you used more than what was in the challenge photo.
This card is so feminine. Love your stripe background as well as the embossed dots.

Very pretty! I was wondering where you found that patterned paper with exactly the same color striping as in the inspiration photo and you answered in your post! :) All I saw when I looked at the photo was stripes as well. Glad you had a chance to play in the hop.
