Proud

Good morning, it's been a strange week with the 4th being mid week it's thrown all my days out. 

Speaking of Independence Day the moodboard challenge over at SumMore Fun is all patriotic this time round. 
So I have made a card using their Strokes of Pride stamp set which is a Raisin Boat set perfect for the challenge:


I stamped the stars using embossing ink onto shiny card and then embossed with clear powder. I then colored my card with blue ink, polishing it so the stars shone through.
next I used Stayzon ink to add the sentiments.
This was the matted with red card and added to a white card base, keeping to the red white and blue theme in the pictures of the moodboard.


So want to join our challenge and get the chance to win a gift certificate to SumMore Fun? Oh and the prize doubles if you use stamps from from the store!

Patriotic With Courage

Good morning! Life is kind of getting in the way at the moment but I'm here today with another great mood board challenge from SumMore Fun.

We are going all patriotic with this one, however as you can just use the colors for your challenge entry there are so many other ways to join in.

My card today is using the great Strokes of Pride Stamp Set. 


This is a great word based set giving plenty of opportunity to make patriotic cards or scrapbook pages.

I used a 6x6 inch card base and matted this with blue and red card. I then die cut an American flag placing this in the bottom left corner of my card. 
I positioned the word stamps around this so that they made sense and stamped them with versa-fine ink so I got a good dark crisp image.
I used blue Pearl Pen to make 3 enamel effect dots at the top of my card to balance the design.

Now how about joining our challenge and getting the chance to win a gift certificate to SumMore Fun? Oh and the prize doubles if you use stamps from from the store!
