Courage

Today's card is a special thank you to our troops. We will be sending one of each of these in the boxes that we send over to the troops. I keep the layout very simple and the colors are Real Red (102482), Night of Navy (100867)and Confetti White (102028) Card Stock. The stamp set is Courage (115330) and can be found on page 67 of the main catalog. I stamped both images with Basic Gray Classic Ink (109120) on the Confetti White Card Stock.
The main image was then watercolored with the Bold Bright (106695) , Rich Regals (106698), Earth Elements (106696) and Neutrals (106746) Watercolor Wonder Crayons. On some areas I colored directly on the image and then used the Aquapainter (103954) to blend the color and on other areas I picked up the color with the Aquapainter and then colored with it. I used the White Uni-ball Signo Gel Pen (105021) to highlight the stars and smaller stripes on the flags. Both stamped images were added to the card with dimensionals. This is a great set to have if you have a loved one that has served or is serving in the military. We really can't thank them enough for all that they do to insure our freedom.
Thank you for stopping by today, Tonya
