Independence Day!

Hello everyone!  It is time for the new challenge at the Li'l Patch of Crafty Friends.  Since the Fourth of July is a special holiday here in the US, I decided it would be fun to create a card based on the holiday.

I used Edward USA from Bugaboo Stamps for this project.  He was colored with Copics and cut out using the Silhouette Cameo.  I used some Spica pens on the stars and the flag finials for a bit of sparkle.  I loved the idea of the little wooden stars, but I wanted them to match the theme, so I colored them with a Copic marker in matching red and blue tones.
