Patriotic USA Red White & Blue Stars Card

Created this Patriotic USA Red, White & Blue Stars Card using layers of cardstock, layer of scrapbook paper, white cardstock, an embossing folder 'Tiny Stars,' chalk, a die cut for the tag, stamp, ink and some metal brads.


The base is square 6 3/4" x 6 3/4" Kraft americana red cardstock. Layers are square 1/4" smaller than base in Kraft americana cardstock: off-white & blue and scrapbook paper. White cardstock is 3 3/4" x 4" embossed with the Paper Studio Tiny Stars embossing folder. Embossed Tiny Stars are chalked. Chalk used is Buzz & Magic and Stamp N Plus chalks: Candy Apple, Stardust & Sky. The Stardust chalk has a glitter look to it that the photo does not do justice to. Tag is made from Spellbinders Shapeabilities Grommet Tags. Sentiment 'USA' is a Studio112 clear stamp stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink. Tm Holtz idea-ology long fasteners/brads are used
on the tag.
