Welcome to Cut It Up Challenge 298!
The theme for this challenge is to use stripes or dots.
I chose stripes. I created a background using seventeen cardstock colours in rainbow order. The card front was embossed with a 3D burlap embossing folder and I cut that on an angle. The stripes were placed underneath and the embossed piece was adhered with foam tape. I left enough room across the card to place a die cut "happy" sentiment. I used vellum for the shadow so the colours would be visible through the word. A small "birthday" was added on the same angle as the larger word and the rest of the embossed front was adhered with foam tape.
