Today I'll show you the birthday card I made for Sam:
I guess I was trying to think out of the box with this card AND follow the Clean and Simple FTL#146
The first thing I did was score my card with my scoring board. (Can you see the score marks? Look close!) Then I masked off everything but where the blue stripes are and stamped it. Then masked everything else and stamped again in the red. I added the dots with my sharpie markers and added a few glass stars I've had for quite a while. I finished it with a PTI sentiment.
Tomorrow I will post my Patriotic Birthday Day 2 card!!
It's Sunday and we'll be at the Bridgeport Bluefish minor league baseball game. It's Soldier Socks day and we are collecting socks, baby wipes and sunscreen for our troops in Afghanistan! I hope we have a successful day!
Thanks for your visit!

Oh Maria I love this card - how creative and a great take on the FTL!!
Sorry I haven't been commenting lately - I have been reading your blog though. I have been getting ready to go to New Zealand for vacation and leave today. So I had to make cards through July and get them preposted - busy busy busy!
What a fun card! I love the patriotic look. Your stamping and masking here is brilliant. Love those glass stars, too.
You are on such a roll with this CAS card! I totally love this!
