Happy Friday! - Please scroll down one page for the Annabelle Challenge. Today the Blogger Challenge group will be showcasing "Patriotic" cards/projects. Since Veteran's Day is just around the corner it seems appropriate to celebrate our great country and the brave men/women who serve in the Armed Forces to protect our Freedoms. For this card I used two different stamps from two different companies. The bear image is from a long retired SU stamp set, Americana and the sentiment stamp is from, St. Louis Stamp design. I think they go pretty well together. The paper is a scrap I had and I added a punched border of stars, some punched stars and some white grosgrain ribbon to complete the card. I'm sorry the photo isn't very good but I tried and tried but just couldn't get this to photograph any better.Card stock used: Night of Navy, Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White. Ink: Cranberry Crisp, Night of Navy.
Punch EK Success.
Be sure to check out what the other BC Members have done and have a wonderful weekend.

ReplyDeleteI love this little bear and the sentiment matches perfectly. cherry cobbler is a great red with night of navy. I'll have to try these two together sometime soon.
