National Anthem....

Hello & Happy Thursday Everyone!

Today's my day to take over the blog at:

SumMore Fun Stamps Blog!!!

Today I thought I would share a Red, White, & Blue Card-

With the fourth of July coming up I felt the need

to create some Patriotic cards that I will mail

off to some of my friends!

I'm using the TOTALLY AWESOME

National Anthem Background (74508-S) Stamp

from Victorine Originals!! I gotta say this was

so easy to use and I LOVE how my background turned out!!

I used my Distress oxide inks in Candied Apple & Salty Ocean

Then I grabbed my Picket Fence Distress ink and stamped

the center in the white ink - It looked like it might fade out

so I pulled out some White embossing powder and poured

it over the center, part and heat embossed it

It totally made a huge difference and looks great between

the Red & Blue Words ...

As you can tell I did all of that on some Kraft Cardstock

And since it looks so nice, I didn't want to

take away from it too much --

So I decided to use a piece of Vellum and stamp

U.S.A. & an Eagle from the Strokes of Pride Raisin Boat

Stamp set. I used some Ultra Fine Black Embossing

powder on that part and I think it turned out nice...

 I felt my card needed a little something Extra --

So I die cut 2 Medium sized stars in Blue & Red and then 

2 tiny Stars in Silver then I adhered them

in the areas were the vellum was.
