I was so excited when I saw this week's challenge at Stampin' Sisters in Christ, and I knew I wanted to make a card with a flag. Then, when I saw the challenge at Just Rite Stampers, I just had to combine challenges. There are SO MANY amazing challenge blogs out there. I'd like to enter them all. Here is the card I came up with to meet the requirements of each challenge I'm entering.
The picture didn't turn out the greatest, but you can see the basic idea.I used a three-layer chipboard flag that I painted and covered in Basic Grey patterned papers, and then embellished. Here is the information on the challenges I'm entering this week.
