red, white and blue USA

I am entering FIVE challenges today with my little red, white and blue USA book.

The challenges are:

• At A Spoon Full of Sugar the challenge is 'touchy feely', where they want to see texture;
• My Time to Craft has a theme of 'anything but a card';
• At Lots to Do Challenges the theme is 'stripes and/or lines';
• Café Mojo challenge us to 'use our stamps'; and last but by no means least
• the Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge is to 'use brads or eyelets'.

Here is my book: The background papers are Sandylion ~ Upper Deck. I embossed some chipboard letters, spelling out 'USA' in red, white and blue and layered them up onto squares that I made and painted with crackle paint. Three little pearls add another bit of texture.

The image is of course a Gorjuss Girl. I coloured her with my copics and added some stickles. I layered her up in the same way that I had done the letters and added some red and blue brads to the corners.

I bound the book and added some star shaped and stripey ribbons in keeping with the US theme.

Thank you for looking.
