The Wish-RAK Group is having a New Year Card Round Up - Cards for the Troops this holiday weekend. Here's my card Studbo's Patriotic Thank You Challenge #12. We're to make a patriotic thank you using any world flag as our inspiration. I decided to use this fabulous silhouette image that I received from jen2972 and the US flag as my inspiration.
Jen stamped the image in black for me. I colored over the image with my VersaMarker so I could clear emboss the image. (Emboss Resist Technique) I used a Post-It Note to cover the top two-thirds of the card and sponged on Buckaroo Blue on the bottom. I removed the Post-It Notes and then covered the bottom two-thirds so I could sponge on Ruby Red. This panel is layered onto River Rock cs (sbbolz granted this wish for me). The designer paper is Western Sky, which I felt was appropriate for obvious reasons. LOL...
I added the Sweets Tag Candy and rhinestone brad and called it good. Thanks, Rox, for another great sketch!

I've never thought about using a Versamark pen and clear embossing powder on a WISH RAK image received. Thanks for the idea! I like the way you did the stripes of red, white and blue.
