Made the dryer sheet flower using a sheet of something like dryer sheets are made of, but it was already orange and was used in place of tissue paper in a gift I received. Of course, I saved it because I knew I would use it on a card someday.
The stripes were all narrow strips of cardstock. I keep them in a strip bouquet vase in my work area. Every so often, I dump them on the table and make something pretty with them. This year, I made striped panels about and inch and quarter wide, putting together pleasing color combos. It's a fun thing to do when I am too stressed to create because your mind can go on auto-pilot. Then you have a whole pile of striped accent pieces to use on cards later.
This ATC is a for my ATC sample album.

This is delightful! How creative to use your saved orange packing material for this pretty "dryer sheet" flower. I love upcycling like that!! It looks gorgeous with your colorful striped panels. Awesome! So glad you were inspired by my tutorial.
