Happy 4th of July everyone. This week Speedy's Friends Challenge is Patriotic. I used Mark's Finest Papers Stamp called American Made. Isn't this image awesome! I loved putting this card together and it is off to my Mom-she will love it.
There is a tutorial on my blog for the roses. (www.chocolatecraftsandbearsohmy.blogspot.com) I finally got around to doing it. These are made with card stock and punches and have been distress inked and stickled.
The banner is ribbon and cardstock that has been punched and folded. I used a Martha Stewart Punch Around the Page and a star punch for accent.
Thanks so much for stopping by.

Good morning Bearzi!! Signed in this morning and I clicked on the PNZ link I have in my favourites to see what was happening in the Punchiez gallery, and there, right next to my little ol' Canadian Moose was your splendid American Eagle. They shall have a happy long weekend I am sure. Your card is wonderful - as always my friend. I don't have an iota of your patience or creativity. I am constantly amazed by the detail you include in your cards. I have to repeatedly stop to admire the "Bearzi Original" that holds a place of special honour on the shelf in my Rubber Room - Punch Artiste Extraordinaire, that's you my Punchie Pal. Raise 'em high!

Bearzi - this is so amazing! Love the colors, the circle banner, your colorful eagle image from MFP, the roses (I have been waiting for that tutorial - can't wait to go see it), and the layers (millions!). This is yummy as usual! Happy 4th!!!! Hugz.
