embellish magazine's stripe challenge

lol, did I mention I 'hate' stripes... ;)

Embellishment Magazine's challenge calls for kraft, chocolate & purple with stripes... right, I almost didn't bother... but then there was that other blogger that mentioned being bent out of shape over a challenge & getting the 'big girl' panties on & that was that, I had to try... yikes purple, brown & stripes - the picture didn't even do it for me - they had to be kidding? right, nope... they asked for it... ;)
