It's Memorial Day Weekend in the States, and it's time for us to pay tribute to those who have sacrificed for freedom not only for the USA, but others.
I have a little card to share. I was completely inspired by the Paper Smooches Sparks Challenge this go around and this is what I came up with.
I started with a Lunch Bag Kraft card base onto which I layered my white cardstock and patterned papers. I took a length of white seam binding and tied off in a fussy bow embellished with a button and twine.
At this point, I started building the center focal image of layers!
I paper-pieced the ice cream from Paper Smooches Sugar Rush adding to my oval die-cuts and embellished with some glittery stickles and a button. I added some ribbon snippets which I banner cut the ends and placed between my star and focal image finally layering on the red die-cut.
Lastly, I stamped Celebrate onto a half decorative oval and placed at the top of my card.
As mentioned, I found inspiration at Paper Smooches Sparks Challenge.
I am also joining in at Sunday {Fun}day Linky Party, DL Art Thankful Thursday Anything Goes Linky Party, 3 Girl Jam - Anything goes with ribbon, Little Scrap Pieces - Red, White, and Blue. My Craft Spot - Ribbon and Twine
Hope you have a wonderful weekend! I will be back tomorrow night for the new challenge at The Ribbon Reel!
