the Corrosive Challenge #76 is a Sketch!

I luv these 2 stamps i used. I don't have any military personel in my family but most of my friends from last 12 years are in the military, living in the lands of Military (mainly Navy); in Guam & Hawaii, and it always makes me to think about those who serves this country, esp. when sketch shows Stars & Squared card base. The images are heat embossed but hard to tell from this pic. I just can't take a Good pic. of this card, for some reason :-( I really wanted to embellish more, esp. on the red background paper with stars BUT when i challenge sketches, i try, as close as the original sketch. So, this is the finished card for this challenge. If i send this card to somebody, i might embellish more :-) oh, i rotated the sketch by 90 degrees.

House Mouse Monday Challenge #73

"Happy Birthday to Miss. America!!" That's the week's theme. I thought i was really DONE with Red, White & Blue, bue when i heard Miss America's name, i had to make ANOTHER one! LOL! but of course, with our lovely Mice! :-) Anyways, Happy Birthday, Miss America!

Mojo Monday Challege 145

well, well... I thought i made enough 4th of July cards, but i made another one, posted it yesterday, for another challenge cuz it called for Stars and Stripes. I thought that was it! Then, i moved onto another challenge... this weeks Mojo Monday... the challenge is this sketch with a STAR... tomorrow is July 4th, and i HAD TO make ONE MORE! LOL I chose the square one.

Stamptacular Sunday Challenge #65 Stars and Stripes

well, i thought i made enough 4th of July cards this year but nah! This challenge calls for Stars & Stripes! I even thought i would make a card with Stars & Stripes with NO red, white & blue colors but i couldn't.... lol... yea, 4th of july is too close to think other colors for Stars & Stripes here, in US! LOL!

I do buy Pretty Papers once in a while cuz they are very pretty to look at, but hardly ever use them. But this Paper with 4th of July theme really got me into making a card with it! Since the paper has a distress look, i tried to match, and made the whole card, looked distressed. Maybe they can RUN another Stars & Stripes challenge, 6 months from now, and i might use other colors! ;-)

Clean and Simple Stamping challenge 95

yes, again, my mind now is "4th of July", but i made enough "4th of July" card! lol This card is very simple but i followed the sketch as close as possible, and in reality, i'm planning to use this card for a military personel, ADDING something under "Bless the USA". I have plenty space there, to make this card More Personal. If i need more "4th of July" card, i'll stamp "happy 4th" :-)

Mojo Monday 143
