Home of the Brave

Hello Crafty Friends!! Today I am sharing a card I made using Kadoodle Bug Designs' Cutie KaToodles Anchor Bear and the star is from Witchy Black Cat file.  The sentiment is from Craftin' Desert Diva's Celebrate Freedom stamp set.  I watercolored the background with Tim Holtz's distress inks and I used Ranger's Enamel Accents in white for the dots on the background.  I used clear wink of Stella on the star.

Thank for stoppin' by!

Here is my card I made using Punny Farm, The Sky is the Limit Dies, Banner Dies, and the new Outdoor Landscape Dies 

I colored the lil horse with my copics.  I used the Banner dies to cut the hill and grass on the sides so that they would be the same width and have the stitching on the sides and bottom.  The oval is also from the Banner dies for the white portion I traced the inside of the oval on to white and fussy cut it.

Have a great week ahead!
