Today's Any Hero card was inspired by OWH Sketch #184. Immediately, I felt that the vertical 3" by 5.5" strip should be a deep blue, with a contrasting 3.75" by 2" horizontal jute/burlap strip and a star embellishment in the circle.

I tried several different combinations of solid and patterned papers for the 0.75" by 5.5" vertical strip, but none of them felt right. When I finally scored and sanded a strip of the chipped sapphire, I loved the simplicity of the look. Keeping it simple allowed the star to really pop. I'm also liking the diagonal stripes on the star.
Parting Thoughts
Wow... it's been a great day. But, I'm pretty beat. So, I think I'm going to call it a night.
Have a good week. Thanks for visiting and happy scrappin'!

You make the best cards! I love how you combined the papers.
Really great card, love everything, especially the burlap (so in) and the off-set matting of the star! A wonderful hero card!
