Until they all come home...

>> Tuesday, June 19, 2012

Hi Everyone,

I love to make patriotic cards when summer is in full swing and nothing says USA like red, white and blue :) This Support Ribbon from the most recent release is a great stamp.  Due to the fact that it's open lined, you can make the ribbon any color you want.  I chose yellow for the troops, but it can be used for cancer support as well.  Not sure if you know this, but each type of cancer has it's own color for support.  Like I said, great stamp :)


I used the Retro Starburst for my "fireworks" background and Until They Come Home greeting as the focal point.  The ribbon I used as embellishment was knotted, rather than tied in a bow, only because it was from my scrap jar.  I had just enough to make it around.  Love it when that happens!

Thanks for dropping by today!

I LOVE this card Karin!! Your yellow support ribbon jumps out from the red, white and blue! (and I love the knot instead of a bow!)

Beautiful card, your background is so cool, and the support ribbon really makes the card.
