DL.ART Thankful Thursday #206 ~ Patriotic

Hello, everyone and happy Thursday!! It's time for a new Thankful Thursday Challenge at DL.ART and the theme this week is Patriotic, or you could always substitute a Thank You card. If you use the code l01210, Diana will give you 10% off your purchase at DL.ART.


For my cards, I used papers from The Paper Studio Vintage Nation paper stack. I layered papers and then stitched them to the base.


I cut the "flag" with a Memory Box Stitched Square die for the stars and a My Creative Time Stitched Rectangle for the stripes.


The banner is from Joy Crafts and the sentiments are from K Andrew Designs (no longer in business).


The gorgeous flowers are cottage roses from Wild Orchid Crafts, as is the pearl star on the corner of the flag. The beautiful ribbon is Patriotic Blue from The Patriotic Bundle. The button is a Spellbinders die, threaded with Red Twine.


I am entering these in the following challenges:

1) Word Art Wednesday - Anything Goes
2) Jo's Scrap Shack Funday Friday - Anything Goes


Now it's your turn!! Head on over to DL.ART to see the amazing projects my design team sisters have created for today's challenge!! Then link up your patriotic project!! I can't wait to see what you create :)
