Hi everyone! At Papertrey Ink, it's Throwback Thursday time! I'll be joining in throughout the year as we feature stamp sets from previous releases! It's a fun way to get new inspiration from stamp sets we already have and love. Or a good way to find new stamps to play with too! Today we are featuring the Rainbow Stripes Die Set! Be sure to click over to the Papertrey Ink Blog for even more inspiration from other design team members! I'm happy to have you here today! I have two posts today! Both are Papertrey Ink so scroll to see the other post. Thank you for hanging in there with me all week as I have so many blog posts! And, thank you for all the nice comments!!

My brain came up with many, many ideas for using the cool Rainbow Stripes Dies! You can make these stripes in any color, you can put them horizontally or vertically...they work for feminine or masculine cards, and on and on!! I decided to use my favorite PTI cardstock colors and make a super bright and cheery card sure to brighten someone's mailbox! Supplies are listed at the bottom of my post.

I started with an A2 card base in bright white. My stripes were die cut using Hawaiian Shores, Raspberry Fizz, and Bright Buttercup cardstock. I layered the striped down the center of my card and then had fun embellishing them! I thought a nice big butterfly would look good! I die cut the top layer of the butterfly out of vellum for a soft look.
