Here's a good 'ol Canadian girl's take on red, white, and blue. Today we're going tea partying to Oak Brook to see Becky who's had a tough go of it but is on the road to recovery. I used Sissix die cuts for this card and a star EB folder for the white panel. You have to look hard to see it but between the red and the blue banners is a white one barely visible in the photograph.

Elizabeth,
As always, a gorgeous and elegant card! The roses are beautifully done and your EF stars are perfect. I love the three banners behind the roses!
