I was feeling better tonight after sleeping most of the day (whew!), so I decided to venture to the gym to get a workout in. I might as well watch TV at the gym instead of on my butt at home.
The theme was patriotic cards for Susan Raihala's
One-Layer Wednesday card challenge this week. I dug around my stamp stash for some patriotic stamps, but then came up with nothing. No flags, no map of the USA. Meh, ok, not a big deal. That's why I decided to use individual letter stamps to spell out "God Bless America." I used two different sets for some visual interest. I topped of the card with some "fireworks" made of stamping starbursts multiple times in clusters.Card Specs:
Ink: Colorbox chalk ink in Prussian Blue, Warm Red, Yellow Ochre, Olive Green
Stamps: Heidi Grace- Alphas, Reagan's Closet (America), Inkadinkado (God Bless), The Paper Company Studio- Playful Expressions (starbursts)
Punch: We R Memory Keepers Corner Chomper
