Paper Blooms Challenge #8

This weeks Paper Blooms challenge was a color challenge.  Yay, I love color challenges!  Since this coming weekend is Memorial Day, we thought it would be great to see what you can make using the colors red, white, and blue.  Being the wife of an American soldier, I take great pride in my country and it's soldiers.  I wanted this card to be fairly simple since it is most likely for a guy.  
Stamps:  Godspeed (SU)
Ink:  Sahara Sand, Real Red
Paper:  Whisper White, Brilliant Blue
Accessories:  handmade bloom from Paper Blooms, circle rhinestone brad, sponge, Real Red ribbon

Remember, you don't have to have any of Leah's spectacular blooms to play along, but if you want them you can find them at her Etsy shop.  She's even added some new mini kits to entice you, so go check them out ;D

    Such a great card Cassie, and it's perfect for a guy. Those are the hardest to come up with I think;)
