My little brother is being promoted to major next month so I made this for him. Happily for me, the color combination at Colour Me...! lends itself perfectly to a patriotic card:
And in another bit of serendipity, the sketch posted today at Freshly Made Sketches worked with my giant star:
The sentiment stamp is from the retired Service & Sacrifice set, but everything else on here is current. Oh, the button is SU! but it's retired also.
Ok, must dash! Cheers, peeps!
Supplies, all SU!
Stamps: Bright & Beautiful, Service & Sacrifice
Ink: Versamark, Pacific Point
Paper: Whisper White, Pacific Point, Real Red
Accessories: Stars & Circles Framelits, Hexagon punch, Lucky Stars EF, white baker's twine, white EP, retired button, Dimensionals
