The Library Challenge #34 The Art of Stripes


The Art of Stripes: Over 30 ways to wear stripes: Amazon.co.uk: Hardie Grant, Libby VanderPloeg: 9781784881511: Books


Cards, and BOOKs!!  Need I say more?  Except how has The Library Challenge and Marina eluded me?? 

Do you need any more inspiration than that fabulous book cover?  I didn't - thanks to Jo who introduced me to this challenge this morning!  I happen to know a few avid card making readers - hoping to spread the word a little myself!   

Here's my [library] card for The Art of Stripes:  inspired by the cover, the colors, and the title.

Hero Arts:  Ooh La La - retired?
from Me inside:
"merci... for thinking I could pull off these horizontal stripes!"
 
Thanks for stopping by again today … I know I've been mighty pesky this week!  All for good causes, my friends! xx

  1. I have seen this blog, but haven't ever participated! I must say, with your first attempt, you've knocked it out of the park...or maybe I should say, over the Eiffel Tower! This is CUTE CUTE CUTE! And a perfect take on the cover too! Looks like a fun book to read....me coming from the era of "DON'T WEAR HORIZONTAL STRIPES....they make you look wide!" LOL!
