Red, White and Blue

 

Hi Friends!

Today I am sharing a patriotic card designed to honor our Veterans for Veteran’s Day, but this card would be an easy one to create in multiples for Memorial Day or Independence Day.

This card was created with The Red, White and Blue Stamp/Die Bundle, a bit of lace and seam binding ribbon- all from Stamp Simply!.

I enjoy playing along with online challenges and will be linking this card to  the Word Art Wednesday #673-#674 “Anything Goes” Challenge.

If you have not had a chance to check out the rest of my Sister Design Team cards on the Stamp Simply blog, or the Word Art Wednesday challenge site I hope you take the time to do so- so much inspiration from all!

 

To create this card:

De-static a piece of white cardstock with an embossing powder tool.

Stamp the script background image from TheRed, White and Blue stamp set with Versamark ink onto the upper top part of the panel, apply gold embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool.

Repeat the above steps for the lower half of the panel.

Once the embossing has cooled, trim the panel, add the strip of Gabriella lace and add a strip of red seam binding over the top of the lace (wrapping the ends of the seam binding behind the panel).

Adhere the entire card front onto a 4 ¼” x 5 ½” piece of red cardstock and mount onto a white card base.

Ink the flog image with Versafine Onyx Black ink, heat set the ink with a heat tool, and color the image with colored pencils.

Die cut the flag image with the coordinating die, layering onto another die cut from white cardstock.

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