I hope there is something in this photo that makes you want to play with us. Of course Easter comes to mind, but my mind went to those stripes. You'll be seeing quite a bit of them this month ;)

Do you remember ribbon jello? I have fond memories of eating it as a kid. And not so fond memories of making it for my cousin's kids a couple years ago. Man it's time consuming. But still cool.

I had to recreate those stripes. So I decided to incorporate them in the form of a present. I dry embossed the white die cuts in a nod to the white plate in the inspiration photo. The sequins add to the celebratory feel.

Will you join us for some die cutting fun over at the CUTplorations challenge?  Create a project based on the inspiration using at least one die cut and at least one STAMPlorations product. Your project might be chosen as the winner of a $15 GC to the shop. Check out how the CUTplorations DT was inspired by this month's photo here.
