The challenge at Gina K. Designs this month is called "Flag! You're It!" so with that in mind I naturally chose the colors of the United States of America. However, it could be the colors of any state or country. That was your choice.
I not only used the red, white and blue colors but I also chose a feather design to represent the feathers of the Eagle. And, I topped off the design with three gold stars from a Doodles Paper Playground Sparkle Blend called Shooting Star. It had a mixture of elements in the package but the shaped stars in gold were what caught my attention and I thought them a perfect addition to this card.
All inks used were from Gina K. Designs and I used the Gina K. Designs Geo Thanks stamp set. The feathers were stamped with the help of my Misti. And, I used both Connect Glue and a Crafters Companion Glue pen for adding the fussy cut layers to the sentiment.
Thanks for visiting and I hope your week is off to a good start. Take care and God bless you.

Very cool design Verna! Love the idea of the use of the feathers to represent the eagle! Very clever!
This is simply fabulous, Verna!!! I love your take on the challenge. That feather stamp has really come to life on your card!!! Well done!
A great vibrant card, and I do like that feather stamp. Great geometric look.

I like the patriotic look and feel of this card with the two colored feathers. Also the sentiment panel looks good with blended dual colors too! NJ
Love those solid stamped feathers
Fun and festive..and very creative! I love it!
Beautiful card, and great colors -- I also enjoyed the colored layers for the sentiment but loved the fading of colors on the sentiment!
This is fantastic! I'm having a little bit of a lack of mojo this morning so was hoping to find some inspiration here.. and I certainly have!
So creative to use feathers for a red, white & blue card, Verna--love it!
Fabulous card and so clever to use the feather stamps this way, I have some and have never used them, you always inspire me to 'get my stuff' out!!
I am not a fan of red and blue together, but your card makes me change my mind. Looks great!
