Statue of Liberty Card

I have a patriotic card today to share. The Statue of Liberty stamp is by Deep Red Stamps 

  
You can find the Statue of Liberty stamp at

or

I've heat embossed the stamp with Versa Mark and silver embossing powder by Stampin Up and then die cut the image out with a Spellbinders die. While the image was still in the die I inked the inside/closest to the image with blue distress ink and red ink on the outside. I sprayed the image with water because distress ink reacts with water and creates a watercolor affect.

The red die cut behind the image is cut from my Cricut Creative Memories Holiday Frames and Tags Cartridge size 3 1/4, Layer, Shift, Petal. The red cardstock is by Tim Holtz and Core'dinations. The sentiment is also a Cricut cut using Plantin Schoolbooks font but not sure the size. I cut it out of unknown sliver vellum. The patterned paper is unknown but the blue cardstock is by Bazzill and the star brad is by Eyelet Outlet. Sorry lots of unknowns for this card but I hope you still like it. 

Thanks for looking.
