 So this is a tuesday evening shot. Today is Independence day in the US. And we are mostly planning to stay home today. ( have two days of work following the holiday so, that makes for a nice break but, not big enough to go and plan something. I had seen that the wednesday tutorial last week was this double triangle fold ( tutorial found here) and decided to try it ( card seen below) and then ended up cutting a few sheets of cardstock and folding it for soon-ish. tried the monday flag challenge and the tuesday color combo also.

 This is a stitched primitive star die from Papertrey ink. I did thread this with may arts burlap string. and it took a good long while because, that printed paper is double sided and teeny polka dots on the other side and the burlap shreds so, it was slow going. the sentiment is from the Art gone wild words to the rescue line "Military Thanks" Stamped with some Avery Elle cherry ink. ( I probably should have done this in the misti to do it several times but, after spending so much time threading I just wanted to be "done" this sentiment is up on foam pop dots above the star.  this one is A2 in real life.

 These stamps are both from Our Daily Bread Designs ( old flag background and let freedom ring sentiment) the background was done with water color crayons in the misti one color at a time so that they would not run as much. there is a bit of clear wink of stella in the "stars"

 this fold is kinda cool and something different. the sentiment is a die cut from Lil Inker designs. cut from some shimmery stardream red cardstock and backed with cream.

the inside liner was cut with a Spellbinders hemstitched die. the "linen" print is a really old background stamp from Stampin' up done with antique linen ink. the floral print is an old Basic grey one. these cards are all A2 in real life. and so, the plan is to pick all this up and get a few more VSN or DTGD stamples going later after breakfast. Thanks for stopping by.
