Patriotic Wish

Happy Independence Day! In honor of the holiday, I decided to make a patriotic card. I’m still keeping with my goal of using up this scrap pad so the colors aren’t strict red, white, and blue. I knew what I wanted to use so I pulled out those supplies.

Of course, step one was to cut the card.

Next, I decided what size star would fit best, traced it onto the patterned paper I wanted to use, and cut it out by hand. I realized then that the tag I pulled out didn’t balance quite right with the star. I punched out a die cut that’s the same dark blue and stamped “wish” on it in white. I decided then to use white eyelets to accent it.

I needed to add the stripes to the card so I chose a smaller size star, traced, cut, and glued it to the larger star.

My final step was to punch the holes and set the eyelets. I left the card blank on the inside. If you like Patriotic Wish Greeting Card as much as I do, click the link to purchase.
