I recently won this fun stamp set and stencil by playing in the Allsorts challenge, and with July 4th almost upon us, it was time to make a card with my new goodies. The stamp set and stencil are both by AALL & Create. I used the red. white, and blue patriotic theme, except for the Statue of Liberty which was colored with shades of green Copics. I added a stitched die cut oval, circle, and rectangle to place the stamped images on, and added a few tiny die-cut stars from my snippets box to finish this card.
I'll share this with the following challenges:
The Allsorts Challenge Week #787 - Way to Grow or the A/G option
Just Us Girls Challenge#733 - A/G using a Stencil
July 2024 Stencil Challenge - Use a Stencil *OPT Shades of Blue
NBUS Challenge #64 - Never Before Used Schtuff (stamps and stencil)
Colorful Options July 2024 - Flags -USA flags are red, white, and blue
My links are finally working again and all it took was a power outage to fix it. It looks like I was missing an update in trying to resolve that issue, but everything updated once the power was restored. Our power went off Saturday night at 11 and didn't come back on until after 7:30 the following morning, so I guess my computer needed that long rest 😏
Thanks for stopping by and make it a great day whatever you do.
