F4A176 challenge is to pick any F4A previous challenge. I chose F4A155 Blues and Browns. This card is for my DH. It's not a Fourth of July card as I don't usually make one for him but I do thank him for his service to our Country. This card is for disposing of a particularly gruesome carcass (in 90+ degree heat) that was left right beside the deck where I like to sit and enjoy the day and nature's delights. It was a smelly and gory job and he did it without my asking him to do it - he is My Hero!
The white mats behind the stars are handcut as is the blue banner. I used a marker to make faux stitching around the banner. The kraft bg panel is impressed using a PTI Herringbone plate.
Thanks for looking.

DH's, can be so surprisingly sweet, can't they. I love your card, I'm sure he will too. I love the colors, and the layout, is very masculine. I thank my DH, for his military service , as often as I can. I'm very proud of all our Veterans. Thank yours, for me. And tfs.
