Painted Stripes

It is no secret that I love the 4th of July!!  And the red, white, and blue color combination.  So of course I had to make some cards to celebrate!!



This is the first card I made yesterday.  I am super pleased with the way it came out.  The Painted Stripes stamp set really makes the perfect flag.  The stripes look like the flag blowing in the wind to me.  I did use a retired star punch as I didn;t want to get my die cut machine out.  It was much easier!!  I used Secret Sea as my base but it is really dark.  Maybe Night of Navy would have been a better choice.  What do you think?



I have one more trip to Iowa City to get some groceries and a stop at Hobby Lobby to grt another wreath.  I got one when I was there the other day and almost picked up two but did not.  Now I wish I had, so back I go!!  Good thing Hobby Lobby and Hy-Vee are next to each other!!
 
Every day is a gift . . . make the most of the gift you have been given today!!

Happy Stamping!!
