on one half of page. Select a sentiment or two. Size it to about 1-3/4". Print on Hammermill® 100lb. White Coverstock.

Color as desired, I chose to use Copic® Markers. The complete list is above.

Cut the images apart and set the one to the side for a later use.

Position the Star Oval Frame® Nesting Die over the image and trace around the outside.

Fussy cut the oval just inside the line.

Check to make sure you didn't trim too much.

Using Recollections® Glitter Paper - White cut 1 next to largest Star Oval® Frame. From the center piece cut the smallest Star Oval Frame for the sentiment.

On a 5"x7" cardbase apply 1/4" EZ-Tear® tape around the edges as shown.

Using your handi-dandy finger tool, burnish in Starfire Glitter into the tape.

Cut a 4-5/8" x 6-5/8" rectangle of the Firework Embossed® Cardstock from my stash, center and adhere to the cardbase front as shown.

Using Copic® B000 to color sky with a flicking motion. Edge using VersaMagic® - Ocean Depth.

Using Copic® W1 to color the ground shadow using a flicking motion. Edge using Brilliance® Starlite Silver.

Center and adhere to the card front as shown.

Cut (2) 1-1/2" pieces of the Stars n' Stripes Ribbon and slide under the edge of main image oval about 2-3/4" from the bottom of the card front as shown.

Using Dimensional® Glue adhere the Oval Star frame to the Main image as shown.

Fussy cut the sentiment, edge using VersaMagic® - Ocean Depth. Adhere the small Star Oval Frame. Using Foam® Tape adhere the sentiment to the lower left of the Main image as shown.

I applied Nuvo® Glitter Drops - Blizzard White to the Silver Sequin Stars and adhered as shown. Let dry.

OPTIONAL: Cut ovals and Star Frames from the scraps. Arrange and adhere to the backside of the cardbase. Add a name plate.
