Proclaim Liberty Eagle

 

Hi Friends!

As July 4^th approaches, I am sharing another card designed using the brand new release stamp set, Patriotic Background along with The American Eagle Bundle (all from Stamp Simply). 

This card was very easy to create (once the coloring was finished).  It is also relatively flat for mailing and would be perfect for making multiples.

To create this card:

De-static two pieces of white cardstock with an embossing powder tool, ink the Patriotic Background stamp using Versafine Black Onyx ink and stamp onto one of the panels and repeat the same process with the eagle image from The American Eagle Bundle on the other panel. .

Apply clear embossing powder to both panels and heat set with a heat tool.

Once the embossing has cooled, color the background and eagle image with water-based markers.

Use a gold metallic paint pen to fill in around the shield and stars.

Stamp the “Proclaim Liberty” sentiment from the Patriotic Background using Versafine Black Onyx ink . 

Apply clear embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool.

Once you are satisfied with the coloring, trim close to the edge of the background perimeter and layer onto a piece of burgundy cardstock.

Trim close to the edge and mount onto a white card base.

Die cut the eagle with the coordinating die (also die cut a second eagle image to layer behind the colored image).

Mount the eagle onto the card front with dimensional foam to finish off the card.

I enjoy playing along with online challenges and will be participating with the Alphabet “G is for Gentlemen (Masculine) Challenge”, the Double ‘D’ “Reach for the STARS” Challenge and the Word Art Wednesday #653-#654 “Anything Goes” Challenge
