Quilt Stripes

The Simon Says Stamp and Show challenge this week is "Stripes".  It's amazing how many ways that Stripes can be interpreted.  This is my take on the theme.

 
I created a 6x6 paper quilt block using some of my favorite Artistic Outpost stamps.  Inky fun!  I stamped various scrap papers and cut them into strips (or stripes!). I like that some of my strips came out a bit wonky.  It makes it look more like fabric.  The yellow circles were made by using the Ranger distress paints.  Which are very, very cool!  I only bought three colors to try them and I am going to have to buy more.  I loved them!  
 
 

I've been playing around with the quilt concept for quite sometime.  I created a different quilt square here awhile back.  Who knows?  Maybe someday I will create more and attach them all together....

  3. I love your stamped quilt block Michelle. I love the juxtaposition of so much vibrant pattern, and as regards the wonkiness - always a good thing in my book! :) Thanks for joining us for this week's Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge!
