My son, the Marine, had a gift to send to the 5 yr. old son of one of my SCS friends, and decided to stamp a card to go with it. His first real stampin' experience, and he loved it!
He stamped the image of the Marines raising the American flag at Iwo Jima in classic Basic black, Brilliant blue & Real red on Whisper white and used the cutter tool distresser on all the edges and layered on Real red cardstock. He embossed the star image on the Brilliant blue cardstock for the base card.
