The Red White & Blue!

I've had this card on my mind since last Monday, when Tina posted the StampTV color challenge, STVCCTG12. I love red, white & blue! Very patriotic, but I wanted to do something a little different.

I already had the roses stamped & in my "coloring" folder. The red was already colored, and the white just needed to be cut out. I colored the blue and cut it out, too. Do you love this sketch? Play it here at Card Patterns. This is sketch #65. I stamped 'with love' several times on the panel beneath the roses. These stamps are from "a year of flowers". See all of of Melanie Muenchinger's stamp sets, at Gina K Designs, HERE.

The Red Hot, and the White Pure Luxury Card Stock are also from GKD. I would have used In The Navy, PLCS, but the Not Quite Navy from Stampin' Up looked better with the color of the blue rose.

FUN PERSONAL STUFF:
Soccer is done for the high school Red JV. The girls went undefeated! A first in the history of girls soccer at MHS!!! Everyone had fun, especially the coaches, I think.
