9/11 Flag ceremony with Scrap our Stash

  Just got back from my son's Court of  Honor last night and was feeling motivated to get this done.  I'm trying to get closer to current.  This one is 9/11/2019 but I am also working on photos from 2020. The sketch I used from Scrap our stash and added the wood veneer embellishments

I used Bella Blvd "Fireworks and Freedom" which has been in my stash for a while now.  I figured that even though the photos aren't from the 4th of July the patterned paper would go well with the patriotic theme of a flag ceremony.


 The wood veneer phrase arrow and hearts are leftovers from a kit that have also been languishing in my stash.
I love that Scrap our stash encourages diving into and using up our stash of materials.  I've been trying to use what I have and not buy more.  I was doing great till I went thrifting with my daughter.  Found some tags, gems, and dimensional phrase stickers at the local Goodwill.  $3 for new to me items that someone else donated.  I call that a win.


I used the die-cut star (light blue) and created my own stars by punching into the middle of a firework burst.  the tiny red star is the end of the burst.  I hid the cut by tucking it under the layers and added some sparkle with the rhinestone.




Thanks for stopping by to take a peak
