EyeConnect Crafts: 4th of July Lace-Up Stars

Hello, Kraftie Friends!!!

I'm back at EyeConnect Crafts Blog as a Guest Designer this month, so I made a quick 4th of July Card, using Lace-Up: Celebration, Stars chipboard shapes.

We might not be able to BBQ with friends or watch the fireworks in D.C., but I will still decorate a bit and have my kids make some crafts.
You can see the photo tutorial HERE!

My inspiration came from The Card Concept #138 {Summer Fun}:

I was inspired by the colors and created a Clean and Graphic Card:

I used some chipboard stars, washi tape, and retired stamps from CTMH.

2. Creative Fingers #189: AGoes

3. DL.Art #262: Red, White & Blue

4. Southern Girls June AGoes

*********************************

This is my 5"x 7" card, using EyeConnect Crafts' Lace-Up: Celebration, Flags...

I brushed white gesso on the Lace-Up: Celebration, Flags, let dry and removed them from the carrier.

I taped different washi tapes on the Flags, trimmed the excess off, re-punched the holes and added a polka-dot ribbon.

I trimmed a light pink panel and stamped "chicken wire" (center) and sentiment (around the edges) with light pink ink (CTMH stamps).

I die cut a white frame in my ScanNCut and stamped texture (CTMH) with brown ink. I outlined it with a fine tip black pen and adhered it on the pink panel.

I stamped sentiment in brown and added a cluster of paper flowers, with sequins in the centers.

Finally, I added the Flags on with foam tape for dimension.

1. Double D: Think Spring
