The weather's been gorgeous here all weekend. If the same is true in your neck of the woods, hope you've had a chance to get outside and enjoy.
Today's Any Hero card was inspired by OWH Sketch #187.

both rectangles. I opted for the twine to be placed on the right side of the bottom rectangle to balance the texture of the pennant. And, I chose to use a shorter rectangle for the sentiment to feature the twine against the navy. This is the one decision I'm second guessing -- wondering if the sentiment would look better running the full length of the navy rectangle underneath it. Hmmm.... maybe I'll play with this part a little more...
Really like the pennant. It's a nice weight, and cut with minimal fraying. The sticker is from a sheet of stickers that was on clearance at Michael's. This was one of those purchases that I wondered if I would regret making.
But, as it turns out, I think I should've bought more than 2 sheets.
Parting Thoughts
Really looking forward to next weekend's OWH Birthday VCMP!
It's sooo pretty here. Think I'm headed out to do a little reading on the front porch. :)
Have a great week! Thanks for stopping and happy scrappin'!

Nice card! I do think I would've extended the sentiment... or used a border punch or a wider ribbon on that piece; but it does look nice as is. :)
Great take on this week's sketch with a patriotic card! I always love the way you use burlap!
I love to see patriotic cards- great job! I love all your other cards too--so fun to look at all of them!
Really enjoy reading about your thought process in developing your cards. I learn something new every time I visit your blog!
Love the burlap! Great card!
