I love this card. The frame and your patriotic stars really look great. I love the red, white and blue. You have used a background stamp that I use to use all the time.

Ah, Canvas! I remember using that stamps constantly the first year or so I had it, and it still gives terrific texture to a design. I love the way you've combined the rough look with the stars and bling - great looking layout.

What a great card. Love that background. I think I began using embossing folders which were quicker and less hassle than these big background stamps. However, seeing the gallery today makes me see that these background stamps add something to cards embossing can't.
