Stars and Stripes


Hi Crafty Friends,

It's time for Challenge #73 at Cut it Up Challenge Blog.
This challenge is STARS AND STRIPES.  Remember that you must include a die cut.

Here's my project:

I've used a number of goodies from Jaded Blossom on this card:  Star Dies, Dimensional Banners Dies and Celebrate America stamp set.  The papers and enamel stars are from Doodlebug Designs.
You'll notice that I used both the positive and negative cuts from the Star Dies.  The striped patterned paper is popped up slightly to give a little more dimension to the negative cuts.  My trusty Cuttlebug was used for all the die cutting.

This challenge's sponsor is As Cute As A Button.  They are offering a $20 gift certificate.
Just link your STARS AND STRIPES project to the challenge blog.  Don't forget to include a die cut!

Chevron is always a favorite, but the stars are a great addition.
