4th of July Foil Flag Card

Since 4th of July is right around the corner, I have a surprisingly easy flag card made using adhesives and Metallic Transfer Foil from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L and it's up on their Blog today.

Place strips of Premium Double-Sided Tape 1/2" on a white cardstock panel, to fill the panel but leave spaces between the tape.

Remove the paper liner on the tape and place red foil from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Celebrate Colors on top of the tape with the pretty side up. Rub the foil with your finger, then remove the foil.

Trim off the white cardstock at the bottom of the pane, then layer this onto a slightly larger white cardstock panel using the E-Z Rubber Grand and set aside.

Place an Adhesive Sheet 4" x 6" on the same size piece of white cardstock and cut a piece to 2" x 2 1/2", save the rest to use later.

Remove the paper liner from the cut piece and place blue foil on the top with the pretty side up.  Rub the foil sheet and remove the foil carrier from the panel.

Using a craft knife, remove the stars from the E-Z Runner Stars and place them on the blue foil panel until it is filled.  Sprinkle this with Crystal Micro glitter, rub in the glitter and shake off excess.  Return the unused glitter to the jar and attach the panel to the left upper corner of the red foil striped panel using the E-Z Runner Grand.

Stamp the sentiment on vellum with VersaMark Ink and emboss with black embossing powder.  Die-cut using a tag die and tie the top with red and white twine.  Attach the tag diagonally to the right side of the flag using the E-Z Runner Permanent Fine Adhesive, it's pretty much invisible through the vellum.

Use the E-Z Runner Grand to attach the flag to a top folding dark blue card.

Happy July 1st!  Here is a card to get you ready for the 4th of July, aren't these Star Spangled Mice cute?!  The image was colored with colored pencils and the stripes on the card were made by cutting strips of Fran's Sticky Panels, adhering them to the card and embossing with Shabby White Embossing Enamel.  Then stamp Vintage Uppercase letters USA with Versamark ink and emboss white.

To all my USA friends, have a Happy 4th Of July!!!!!!

4th of July

Since the hubby is on vacation this week, I haven't had time to stamp so here are a couple of 4th of July cards I made awhile ago. I don't send out 4th of July cards but this chick by Stampendous is just so darn cute! The chick is colored with watercolor pencils, layered on a red panel and popped up. A red star sticker was placed in the center of the sparkler. The red and white is ribbon that was glued down and stamped on with blue StazOn ink.

This chick is stamped on a dome tag and layered onto red paper that I cut to fit, the ribbon at the top helps hide any imperfections!

I'll be back to stamping next week since this weeks schedule is full! Tomorrow we are going to see Wicked at the Pantages Theater in L.A. We are all looking forward to it, the hard part is figuring out how long it will take us to get there since some of the driving time will be during rush hour traffic!

Then on Friday the kids are spending the night at Grandma's house while we celebrate our 21st wedding anniversary, boy does the time fly by! Every year we go to Five Crowns restaurant in Corona Del Mar where we were engaged. The food is wonderful! The restaurant is an old English style with a dark interior, fireplace and high backed chairs. They also have a nice glass covered garden section that has a completely different feel. That reminds me, I better make sure my DH made reservations.

Thanks for stopping by!
