Welcome to my blog world for another awesome challenge for Exploring Cricut! This week's challenge is to create a card, layout, or other paper craft celebrating the 4th of July and you must include a flag.
I decided to create a card for a friend's birthday. He's a "firecracker" baby so I decided to step outside the box for him.
I definately had a lot of fun with this card as I tried something I've never tried before. I used the special stamp set from CTMH "Home of the Brave" to stamp the background with patriotic sayings. I used cranberry and pacifica inks. I then used the cartridge Stand and Salute to cut the flag. All cuts were made at 3"
Recipe:
cardstock: cranberry, pacifica, cocoa, white daisy
Home of the Brave stamp set
sparkles: Michaels
Great job and thanks for being a part of the team!
ReplyDeleteThe flag looks so good on top of the stamp. Really pops:)
