Square Lattice Embossing Folder - Stampin Up • Banner Flag Stax - My Favorite Things Sentiment - Unknown • Paper - Recollections by Michael's Crafts |
I thought about this card design for days before I was able to sit down and actually make it. So much so that when I finally did set out to create it went together very quickly. It's a bit hard to perceive in the picture but the flag is 3D, with the stripes and star popped up ever so slightly with some foam tape.
I haven't decide yet if this will carry an Any Hero note of thanks or get included in my next shipment so that a hero can use it to thank someone back at home.
Now head on back to the
to get over to your next stop.
Great card - I can see the popped layers and they really look awesome. Love the embossed background too.
ReplyDeleteGreat card Paula.. love all the dimension and texture. Pam

ReplyDeleteI love cards with dimension and this is a winner. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking your previous cards too! I looked at them all! This card is sobeautifully cas, but that flag on the embossed background is such a WOW factor for me. Also really liked the yellow ribbon on one of last year's cards. :)
ReplyDeleteI love how you made the flag. I've always struggled with 3-color inking and stamping, and we all know I can't draw, so I may need to CASE your fabulous idea. I'll let you know if I do. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great card!
ReplyDeleteAnother home run!! I love it, the flag is perfection, I really like the embossing on the back layer, your cards are always great.
ReplyDeleteGoodness, I'm going to be doing a lot of caseing! Love this card! This is one of my all time fave embossing folders - use it a lot! And that flag just stole my heart. Beautifully done - thank you for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card, as always. I love the texture background and just putting those stripes on so straight is a feat I don't think I could do!
