Tim Holtz Patriotic Card using Your next Stamp June Sketch

Good day to you!  I was super busy over the weekend.  First I created some Independence Day cards using the Tim Holtz Seasons Kraft Resist paper pack.  For this card I followed the Your Next Stamp June Sketch.

I embossed the red card stock with a star embossing folder.  Then I added some navy washi tape.  I layer the Tim Holtz image on navy card stock and kraft card stock.  I stamped the Fiskars' sentiment with Indigo Mix'd Media ink on kraft card stock.  Finally, I added some bling!  Oop, I see where one fell off before I took the picture!  All edges chalked with Quick Quotes Powder Puff Blue Moon.

Here's the sketch:
