Double Take Flag...

Hello & Happy Thursday Everyone!
Today's my day to take over the blog at:
YAY for me... I'm so excited to share a wonderful
Fourth of July card with you! 





As many of you know... my son is in the Marines,
and anytime I can send him well wishes I do! I thought this
Fantastic Double Take Flag Stamp would be fitting!
It is a Large stamp, and the stars are separate from the stripes,
which made it easy to stamp in the colors I wanted!
I also like that the stamp has a vintage/distress design 
which I thought was pretty neat - 😊
The Sentiment is computer generated & I printed it out
on Vellum paper... then die cut it out with a banner die.



** Other Supplies Used **

Cardstock - Stampin' Up, Recollections, Vellum
Flag Stamp - Victorine Originals (Double Take Flag)
Distress Oxides - Broken China, Faded Jeans, 
Worn Lipstick, Fired Brick

Love it! Awesome that the stars and stripes are separate... love it when they make it easy for you... I HATE masking and I cut my stamps apart whenever I can rather than masking...lol! Awesome card ... he will love it!

I'm sure he loves to get mail from you. When my son was deployed, I tried to send cards weekly. It's always nice to hear from home.

Love your flag card! Three cheers for the red, white, and blue!
