This is the only patriotic stamp that I have and I wanted to make some 4th of July cards this year. My husband says now I am looking for an excuse to make some more cards....LOL
I stamped the bear image and colored it using my SU watercolor crayons and blender pen. I stamped the bear image again, colored and cut out a second flag, which the first bear is now holding. I just felt that having a second flag on my image would be more patriotic.
On the red and blue background paper I used a small star stamp (from SU's Just Flying By stamp set) and I repeatedly stamped it all over my cardstock. Then I added some highlights using a white gel pen.
My ribbon is from Offray and my sentiment is from a Studio G stamp set.
