Red, White and Blue handmade card

What do you bleed?  I'm a born and proud American.. and creating is a great way to highlight this!  I was overjoyed to find this cute shirt at Tractor Supply (I have a small goat farm of small goats and I just LOVE this store lol).  Creating to celebrate those brave soldiers is a fun way to highlight this amazing Artfully Aware stamp set while preparing for our Soldier Care Package fundraiser!  See how to create this card from our recent Facebook.com/GettingCrafty.net LIVE (Video available under the VIDEOS tab).

I love when crafting products come together for an easy wow card!  Create a Ribbon Card to celebrate our USA or any matter of importance!  
~  Stamp the Whisper White card stock (4"x 2-1/2") in Stazon black ink and the Artfully Aware ribbon.  
~  Stamp your greetings around it.  
~  With the Aqua Painter and the Pacific Point and Poppy Parade ink pads create a flag over the image. 
~  Die-Cut with the Support Ribbon die this image.
~  Layer over the Poppy Parade 4-1/4" x 2-3/4" with SNAIL adhesive.  ~  TECHNIQUE:  Create a stand up image with a strong solid card stock under the die-cut image.  Layer the ribbon off center so it peaks out.  Raise it with our Mini Stampin' Dimesional adhesives.  
This is called the Eclipse Technique.
~  Add some WINK of Stella glitter to the raised ribbon.
~  Using the Take Your Pick Tool adhere the adhesive backed Rhinestone Jewels to the flag.

For the Troops...

It is near and dear to my heart... 
our Deployed Troops and Veterans.

My Uncle Jack was a Vietnam Vet who suffered from Agent Orange.

My niece lost her husband mid second pregnancy, when a jeep flipped on him.  She still opens the box of cards he sent home every year for the kids - the blank ones we mailed to him while he served.

What Others are SAYING about Getting Crafty with Jamie

Jamie is so passionate and creative about making cards - and wants everyone else to join her in the fun! She is so encouraging and positive in her attitude, helping me along when I get frustrated - and then rejoicing with me at the finished product! I love going to her classes to get new ideas, learn techniques, and have loads of fun in the process. ~ Christine C.

Jamie has wicked awesome classes! If you don’t like a particular stamp or paper/ink color Jamie wants you to change it to suit your style! I did my sister-in-law’s entire bridal shower from invitations/thank you cards, party favors to decorations, it was quaint and whimsical! Everyone ooh’d and ahh’d! I’ve had lots of special requests for classes and Jamie delivers; she always has tasty treats and flavored coffees too ~Ashley W.

I have been attending Jamie's classes for over a year. Her ideas for cards are fresh and fun. She always tries to have several different styles of cards available, so everyone gets to make cards that fit their personal style. The techniques she shows each class can be used in many different applications. She is very patient teacher when instructing class members on how to use the Stampin Up products. ~ Carol D.

If I looked up the word sparkle in the dictionary, I would find Jamie Albanese picture there. I have had the sweet blessing of knowing Jamie and her family for over 5 years now. Every time I am with her I feel loved and inspired. When I am in one of her classes I feel my creative juices flow, as she encourages me to go outside my comfort zone. Jamie helped our girl scout troop make cards for a soldier who needed some encouragement!!! For any of you who have not been in one of Jamie's classes, please don't let another day slip by. She is a beautiful friend and she will become yours too. ~ Blessings, Karen:-)

Jamie has a great eye for style and flair, and it shows in her work. Yet she can pick up on your own individual style and makes great recommendations. I love that she is always flexible for last-minute decision maker mommies like me! So much fun to host craft events with your friends and family - that personal touch always means so much. ~ Adonna
