Hey Friends, it's time for another Watercooler Challenge!
This week, we are doing a product challenge,
with artists showing different ways to use
the Fringe Scissors (p 215).
My project is a "hippy vest" that includes fringe
at the bottom. Some of us, who are "MY age", will remember this look! I brayered over the Back to Black DSP with Lost Lagoon ink,because the pattern seemed to enhance the "hippy" look.
Set: Alphabet Rotary Stamp (p 191)
Colors: Very Vanilla, Soft Suede, Lost Lagoon,
Other: Starburst Framelits (p 231) for armholes,
1 inch Circle punch (p 221) for neck hole,
Gold Sequin Trim (p 206) Colored with
Measurements: Vest is 5 1/2 x 3 1/2.
Score 1 1/2 inch from each side.

I love your card, Jackie. I am sure whoever you give it to will enjoy it. Thank you for bringing yet another awesome sample to the Watercooler Challenges!!
Very cute, Jackie!
I love that hippy vest! (Saw a lot of those back in Grand Forks, BC---a little leftover hippy town). The colour and embossing really gives it a lot of texture. Such a neat idea!
Way cool dude! Now if only a life size version of that vest was in my closet. I do indeed remember those days...heck...they still seem current to me. {grin}
Thanks Jackie for for sharing the inspiration. Next question...do you have the Dude Your Welcome set to use with the vest? Hee, hee. Love the idea of brayering over the DSP to tweak it as needed.
OK, the way you used the fringe scissors is uniquely creative, but I'm MOST impressed that you brayered over the Back to Black designer series paper :) wish I could remember that trick!
