A color challenge with a masculine theme . . . keep it simple and it's easy to accomplish. Today's Pals Paper Arts Challenge (PPA96) tempts you with rich colors like Night of Navy, More Mustard and Cherry Cobbler. Check out the PPA Design Team card ideas and this week's celebrity guest stamper HERE!
STAMPIN' PRETTY TIPS:
-
To make this simple fold card, cut Stampin' Up! Naturals Ivory Card Stock to 9 1/2" x 3 3/8". This size tucks neatly into Stampin' Up! Whisper White Small Open End Envelopes (107286) - Score at 3 1/2".
- Color the Land of the Free stamp image with Night of Navy and Cherry Cobbler Markers and stamp on Naturals Ivory Card Stock.
- Cut "flag" to 3 1/4" x 2". The Cherry Cobbler mat below is 1/4" larger in both directions.
- Use More Mustard to "flick" the edges of the Naturals Ivory card stock for an antiqued finish.

I really like this card with this color combo. I’m using this idea for a swap and a gift for my patriotic boss. Thanks for sharing the details.
I adore that star brad. I never noticed it before. Wonderful details, Mary.
Wow, that card is absolutely specatcular! I love the colours you used and the addition of the Hodgepodge Hardware brad in the center of the star!
Mary, I love your card. I love the details, the image… its awesome. I never even got started with the stars and they are gone…. how sad!!!! Hugs,
Great use of the color palette. You’d better use that Star while you can! 🙁
