FAUX FLAG POSTAGE STAMPS

Hi. This is my first card since I broke my foot and toe Monday. I have no awesome story either. I was simply pushing my grocery cart across the parking lot to return it and was walking briskly and the front wheels suddenly stopped as they lodged in a seam in the sidewalk and I guess my foot went front forward into the ground. Ouch. I have an aircast boot and a crutch. I am feeling much better than Monday. Yay.

I played in today's WAYS TO USE IT CHALLENGE. What a challenge Cindy had for us today. To make a card for Canada day or Fourth of July without using blue or red. Yikes. With a flag image this was tricky.

I used the newly released LET FREEDOM RING digi from CLEAR DOLLAR STAMPS. I also used SHEET MUSIC for my background.

RECIPE:
ALL CDS STAMPS USED:Let Freedom Ring Digital Image, Sheet Music
PAPER:Neenah Solar White, Night Eclipse (CDS)
INK:Printer, Tim Holtz Distress ink Vintage Linen, Vintage Photo, Walnut Stain
ACCESSORIES:Tim Holtz Blending Tool, Stamp Edge Scissors (Fiskars), Fresh Papaya Ribbon (CDS)
TECHNIQUES:Distressing
