This was a really fun challenge! Haven't had so much fun since I actually lost my marbles, lol. Good thing a few hung around so I could try this.
I did the tech as described by Lynn Here, using the reinkers listed below. Then I covered most of it up w/ my layers. You can still see some peeking thru the star punches and around the edges.
My image was inked first w/ the cobalt then I used the indigo to darken one side before stamping onto white c/s and cutting out.
The Hero was stamped in cardinal and positioned in the center of a tag punch. I stamped the little star and punched it w/ a small star punch, added the ribbon and attached them onto the image.
The navy and red bgs were punched w/ the large star circle and I used a little star embosser down the sides. I added a couple of postage stamps. (Yes, I save those, too. It's really sad that at some earlier date, I was even compelled to organize them in groups. Man, I need a program, lol).
Everything is attached to a white card. TFL
