Is it that time again? I don't know about you but the weeks seem to go by quicker and quicker the older I get...
This week's challenge over at The Shabby Tea Room is brought to us all by Nicole - "Stars and Stripes" - and the inspiration for your card/project is Old Glory:
Being as I'm Canadian, I didn't really feel *right* making an American-themed project but I *did* use stripes and the colors (and it is one of my favorite combinations...) I have absolutely nothing against our neighbours to the south - in fact my mom was born in Wisconsin and is still an American citizen - and I have MANY stampy friends to the south that I {heart}.
I used Taylor's sketch:
And snip, snap...
Recipe - Stamps: Heart Stripes (MFT, Pure Innocence) Paper: Whisper White, Night of Navy, Real Red, SU! DP Ink: Versafine Onyx Black, Night of Navy, Real Red Accessories: Square punches, Nestabilities, paper piercer, Copics, dimensionals, heart brad, alphabet brads, organza ribbon

This is super cute, Melissa! Great job with the sketch and I adore that little girl image. The red, white, and blue color scheme looks wonderful.
Great card, Melissa! Your interpretation of the challenge is *perfect*! Love that image, the layout, and that patterned paper! :)
