Here is what I made for the June Challenge:

When stars and stripes were mentioned of course all I could think of

was of Fourth of July or an American theme.

My stars and stripes are subtle but you can clearly see where they are. 

For this card I used

Chloe and Sam - Love You

First stamped the image

then I stamped it on a piece of masking paper

so I could use distress ink all over and not 

"ruin" the image I intend to color. 

After getting all inky with the distress inks:

Mermaid Lagoon (a tiny bit around Chloe and Sam)

Black Soot (which covers most of the background)

and Mowed Lawn (for a grassy area)

Then I drew up some fireworks

with my Uniball white pen and my Prismacolor Pencils

Here is a close up of the Copic coloring, a tad bit of the background

and you can even see some of the firework colors reflecting 

on their shiny hair.

 Here is a tad bit of the process

before I started coloring the image

and check out those coupons and spicy wings

LOL  I just use junk mail to protect my table from the ink.

I hope you liked my card. 

Make sure to join us on the Facebook page with 

a project with the theme above. 

Thank you for stopping by.
