It seems that a lot of the challenge blogs are celebrating Independence Day with USA themed challenges...so I've managed to combine quite a few on this card: the fab sketch from the Friday Sketchers Challenge; the 'Red, White & Blue' colour combo from the Penny Black Saturday Challenge and Our Creative Corner; the 'Red, White & Blue, Buttons and Swiss Dots' challenge from Cuttlebug Challenges; the 'Stars & Stripes' theme from the One Stop Craft Challenge; and the 'Buttons' theme of the Charisma Cardz and Pile It On challenges. Phew...that's seven challenges!
I used '...to you' (by Penny Black) as my main image, so no need for a separate sentiment. I couldn't find any suitable papers, so embossed plain card with the 'Swiss Dots', 'Spots & Dots' and 'Forest Branches' (these are my 'stripes'). The stars were all cut using Nesties, and thee buttons are by Papermania.
Adorable!! LOVE LOVE LOVE the card!!
