There are so many reasons to celebrate this year and red, white and blue says it all. I've used a Saturated Canary image by Krista Smith for the focal point and coloured her with my Promarkers. I coloured the inside edge of the Spellbinders nestie with Barn Door Distress Ink before removing the image from the die. The large scalloped card blank is from Craft UK. The red card is from Papermill and that was cut with a Spellbinders grand scalloped nestie square. I'd bought a Docrafts Papermania paper pad at the Glow, Bluewater Craft Show in February and hadn't got round to using it until I made this card. I did intend using it for the diamond jubilee street party invitations but as Eric was poorly that idea went out of the window! I used my corner rounder punch to cut the corners and then set the paper at an angle on the red mat. The image also had the corners rounded with the punch so that there were no sharp corners on any of the papers. I added some Union flag buttons to two corners and I think that's it. They were bought at Bluewater too.
I'm entering this card in to the following challenges:
Saturated Canary Challenge 20 - Red, white and blue
Papertake Weekly - Bingo, Buttons, Free, Punches
Joanna Sheen - Summer Daze
Gingerloft Challenge - Red, white and blue
Robyn's Fetish - No flowers anywhere at All
