Magnolia-licious Challenge #17

Hello stamping friends! Our color challenge this week is red, white, and blue at the Magnolia-licious Challenge blog.


So I created this card for our challenge:



I had this wonderful flag stamp from Our Daily Bread and thought it would go perfectly with Magnolia's Tilda in Star Dress.  I also used Magnolia's Shooting Stars stamp in the background as my fireworks but I don't think you can see it too well as my flag covers most of it. These fun patriotic papers are from BoBunny and I got them at Love To Stamp. I also used a few patriotic stickers that I picked up at my local Michaels Arts and Crafts.

Copic colors used today are: B97, B95, B91, B000, Y000, E11, E00, E000, R27, R24, R22, R20, C1, C00

I will enter this card at the following challenges:

Ellephantastic - July celebrations (Independence Day celebration)
Our Daily Bread Designs - red, white, and blue
Send A Smile 4 Kids Challenge - red, white, and blue
If The Shoe Fits, Scrap It - patriotic
7 Kids College  Fund Challenge #25 - red, white, and blue


Thanks for stopping by! Have a great week! :)
