I decided to make another tent card with a dangling center. For this design I decided it would be fun to use the Patriotism on Paradeset along with the Swing Set stamp sets to create a festive and fun scene. I colored the images using the Flourishes Copic Color Collections in Daffodil, Delphinium, Flesh tones, Poppy, Cool Neutrals, and Spring Greens. I cut out my tree images and the girl swinging. I added black floss for the swing rope. I stamped the children on parade and created a soft sponge sky background using soft sky ink and SU scallop circle punch as a stencil. I finished with a big red gingham bow which I think is very American and some red, white, and blue star buttons.
Stamps: Flourishes Patriotism on Parade and Swing Set
Paper: SU night of navy, gp white, PTI poppy and new leaf
Ink: Pure Poppy, Palette Noir, SU soft sky Accessories: Nestabilites, copics, floss, SU scallop circle and small and large oval punches, foam circles, score pal, sponges
