Red, White, and Blue - Stars with Gingham

A simple layout and color scheme, with lots of detail in the gingham, sheer starry vellum layer, and diagonal striped embossing and circle stamp.  The sentiment makes a strong focal point with bold white ink on red, and "using a sentiment as the main focus" is our theme for Our Daily Bread Designs (ODBD) March challenge for Operation Write Home. 

This will be one of my Any Hero cards to write a note of appreciation to our deployed heroes.  Thank you, ODBD, for continuing to support our troops each month with these challenges!

Card details:

• Card stock is Papertrey Ink (PTI) pure poppy (red), enchanted evening (dark blue), sheer basics vellum (star print), and gingham print from PTI pure poppy pattern pack.
• Embossing folder is Darice diagonal stripe. 
• The sentiment "thank you for all that you do" is from two different stamp sets: PTI wonderful words: thank you and Stampabilities card phrases.  The striped circle is from PTI boy basics: simple circles.  All stamped with PTI fresh snow ink cube.

Created for Operation Write Home, "supporting our nation's armed forces by sending blank handmade greeting cards to write home on, as well as cards of gratitude to encourage them." (438)
