Merci Beaucoup!


Hello everyone! Today the weather is amazing, which has motivated me to become more active. Whilst creating this card, I have also been popping outside to my backyard soaking up the sun while I can. The card I am sharing with you is for the JustRite Friday Challenge #076 - "Stars & Stripes".  For this challenge, it's all about "Stars & Stripes" - create a project with stripes and use at least one star


For each challenge I complete, I try to do something a little different so as to add to my skill base. I wanted to make a z-fold card.




For my star, I wanted it to be dimensional. I punched three stars, folded them in half and attached a glue dot to adhere them together and also to my stamped label.

I used a sentiment from the stamp set, added foam tape to add dimension as well as some pearls to complete the card.

Supplies:

Paper: Kaisercraft Magnolia Grove 6 1/2" paper pad, Stampin' Up! cardstock

Stamps: JustRite Stampers Fleur de Lis labels Twenty

Ink: Stampin' Up! Cherry Cobbler

Other: Spellbinders nestabilities labels twenty, JustRite nested frame die, Kaisercraft pearls, seam binding, star punch.

Thanks for stopping by!
