Stars and Stripes

Hello!  Firstly, I must give my apologies for not being around as much as I would have liked over the past few weeks.  It's mostly due to work and I have another weekend of marking ahead as my senior pupils have just finished their prelims. I have a number of cards on the go, but not quite finished, so please bear with me - hopefully things will get easier as we head towards Easter!

Anyhoo, there's a new challenge starting today at Sweet Stampin'.  In honour of our gorgeous Sweetie, the lovely Abi, we've chosen Stars and Stripes as our theme.  Our girl has gone of to the U S of A for a fabulous holiday (not really jealous) and we know that she is just going to have the BEST time!

Our sponsor this week is the Stamp Fairy, who gave each of the Sweeties an image to play with.  Here's what I did with mine:

I cut up my image of Barry with his firework after colouring it with Copics.  I punched some stars rather than cut out the tiny ones on the digi and also cut some bunting from the DP, which is all Magnolia. There's plenty of room for me to add a sentiment later - I think this is destined to go to a wee boy we know.

I hope you can pop over to Sweet Stampin' to check out the fabby creations my lovely teamies have made to inspire you.  So let's see what you do with those stars and stripes (but don't forget to STAMP)!

Have a great Saturday!
