A Patriotic Card...

 Hello!  Popping in with a quick share of a card that I made for Freshly Made Sketches and Color Throwdown.   And I will also post over at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge of anything goes.  Let's have a look at what I made.

Since the colors at CTD were red, white and blue I had to go in a patriotic direction.  I pulled out some of my older supplies to create this card.  The stamp set I used is an older one from A Jillian Vance Design.  I stamped the image on white cardstock with red and blue and then die cut with a square die.  The star is from a very old My Favorite Things stamp and die set.  I used two of the dies together so that the star would be open in the center.  I used my favorite red cardstock Cherry Cobbler from Stampin Up for the star.  I tied some blue twice around one of the sides for a little something else.  The only new product I used was the sentiment from a fairly new Concord & 9th stamp set called Blended Petals.  I stamped it in watermark ink and heat embossed in white.  I then die cut it with an old MFT fishtail banner die. I used thin foam squares to adhere everything to the white panel.  Clean and simple!  Just how I like it.

That's it for me.  Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!
