I found an easy challenge on the BoBunny blog. They give you a layout to make & you just post your version. It was a lot of fun with the paper I chose, called Liberty United. I love any paper that's aged or distressed.
"Soldier" was stamped in two two colors with the Token Alphabet. I REALLY need a circle punch for this, but hand cutting works too. The colors of the cardstock and inks are Denim & Cranberry. I am a huge Close To My Heart fan. All the inks & cardstocks match. They worked great with the BoBunny paper too!
The stars were cut on the Cricut, then sponge inked. I also sponged the scallops along the top. The lovely star was cut out of the B.B. paper and layered on a circle with a scallop edge for flair.
I love this photo, my son is wearing his grandpa's old Army hat. The soldier on a stick is my cousin, he's no longer in the Army. The phrase was a long sticker that I cut into three strips.
Now I am in the mood to make some patriotic decorations! I'm going to have to go back to Pine City Scrapbooking Co. and get more BoBunny Liberty line!!!
Tis the season for some stars and stripes!!! Love this layout and your monochromatic stars with the inked edges are sooo cool!
