The Prize
My inspiration came from the colors the flag and the silhouette of the soldier. I started with some white card and used my scoreboard and distress ink to create a wood grained effect. I embossed a piece of vellum with a star embossing folder,and cut it on the diagonal. The stamp is from Our Daily Bread and I colored it with Prisma pencils and Spectrum Noir markers. The Hello Die is a Die-Versions Curly Word Die available at the Dies R Us store .
Oh it's a fabulous card! Love the addition of the vellum!
ReplyDeleteWOW! From the embossed Vellum to your beautiful wood grain background, this is AWESOME! That is a very unique and perfect stamp for this inspirational photo! LOVE the hello die, those curly word dies are wonderful!
ReplyDeleteOh Man! My eyes went right to the fabulous vellum and how you used it on this card.

LOl, I just read Donna's comment and it looks like we think alike.
