Showing some Patriotic Stampendous!

There are so many cute patriotic stamps to choose from Stampendous it's so hard to choose a favorite! I finally chose Stampendous Old Glory Rubber Stamp because when I saw it, I knew instantly what technique I wanted to do with it! I also thought this Stampendous Serving With Honor Rubber Stamp was perfect for a patriotic card.

I am one of those crafters that believes more...IS MORE! So who would of figured that when I made this card I would keep it simple. I tried, and tried to think of lots of bling to add to this card, but there is something beautifully simple about making our flag the shining centerpiece of this card.
