Freedom

Hello!  Sorry about the lag in posts.  I’ve been super-busy hopping from one swim practice to another plus getting ready for company.  I’m hoping things will slow down in the next couple days so I can relax…and stamp! 🙂

 Celebrate Freedom

Since July 4th is just around the corner (can that really be?), I thought I’d share this card I made a while ago using Cornish Heritage Farms‘ Proud Eagle, Freedom and America the Beautiful.

I used Copic markers to color the eagle, outlining his head with an E50 (Eggshell) marker.  That’s the color I always reach for when I want to add just a bit of emphasis to an ivory or white area.  

The patterned paper is double-sided so I took advantage of the ease of matching by using both sides.

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Hopefully I’ll be back soon.  Have a great day!
