Inspired by this weeks Mojo Monday Sketch and the Stand and Salute Challenge at the Kraft Journal, I created this Easel Card. Those who know me, know I LOVE layers, wonder how much it will cost to mail this one.....
I just love this Artistic Outpost image from the Hero plate, it's stamped in Black Archival on watercolor paper, then I used a morphed version of the Watercolor Distress Technique to add color, then went back in and added more color with Distress Inks and an H20 Brush.

Wow, Lisa! This is wonderful! I find myself getting more and more patriotic the closer it comes to my son's leaving for bootcamp!
You make such incredible patriotic cards. You said the patterned paper scraps were by Karen Foster. Is it a set of patriotic papers? Do you still know the name of the set, off hand? I'd love to get some. I really like the wings on the front panel, and the layers galore! The stars show up so well on this! Fabulous job!
