Blogger Challenge: Week 210

This week’s blogger challenge theme is a color challenge—red, white, and blue. I went with the traditional patriotic star theme here with a little twist.

I kept my design super clean and simple, starting with a white card base with a pair of dot embossed panels in red and light blue. I used a pair of paper punches to make silver stars with open centers and attached them to the colored panels using foam tape.

Instead of using a patriotic-inspired sentiment, I used a star-inspired one. I stamped the “you rock” sentiment from the Paper Smooches Sentiment Sampler set along the side of the colored panels in black ink. The sentiment is accented with a pair of clear crystals.
