Veteran's Day is right around the corner! I always have a hard time with patriotic types of holidays- I think when the Fourth of July rolls around next year I'll have used up all of my red, white, and blue ideas. This card is an A2 white base. The blue polka dot paper is some digital paper that I downloaded for free, but I can't remember from where. I dumbly saved the file names as the color of the paper but didn't include the source. If you know where I got it from, let me know so I can give credit where it's due.
The four pennants are cut at 1.5 inches from Birthday Bash. I used blue and red ink to stamp "USA" all over them with my Paper Smooches "Alphadots" stamps.
I used some dark blue We R Memory Keepers brads with home made red/white/blue baker's twine to hang the banners and some red ric-rak from Hobby Lobby.
