On white card base used edger to make star border on 3 edges. Then put down a strip of red on inside where stars are so when closed it shows through. Made 3 scallop nesties of different colors adding the fourth with picture of eagle colored with water pencils, did sky with distress ink, added red brad. the background stamp is SU stamped 4 times, distress edge of card with blue. Did white on eagle with versa mark and white powder.

Love how you framed out your eagle with the red, white and blue scallops - neat idea to punch the star border and have the red behind it too!! Great card!

Oh gosh - how gorgeous. It would be a great 4th July card, it's so festive feeling with that wonderful starry border. I love all your layering, it adds so much emphasis to the eagle.
