Double D Challenge

Patriotic / Support Our Troops

For this challenge we are to think of the holiday coming up this weekend and the Patriotic theme.  I remembered an old stamp of an American flag that I have and used that.  The background is Lil Inkers diagonal stitched die in white, over a navy base. Flowers are Azalea by Power Poppy and colored with copic markers, and fussy cut.  I used a die from My Favorite Things, Lamp Post to make the flag holder. It was cut from gold foil paper.  And that is it!  A quick card. I hope that I inspired you to create an entry, it is still time.  Check it out Patriotic / Support Our Troops

 Thanks for stopping in to see this card and I really love to see your comments on what I do. 

     Thanks,

  4. I absolutely love all the cleverness in the design of this, Barbara! The flowers are one of my favorite Power Poppy stamps and the way you used your dies is brilliant! The stitched rectangle to cut out the flag, and the lamp post for a flag holder -- wow! Love the striped die cut background, too. Thanks so much for playing along in our Double D Patriotic Challenge!
