Today's card features Avery Elle's Star Frame steel die.

I have teamed the Star Frame Die with Simon Says Stamps Amazing clear stamp set to give my card a 4th July theme.

I began by stamping some of the images from the Amazing stamps set using Simon Says Stamps Lipstick Red, Schoolhouse Red & Blue Violet ink pads. I then die cut the Star Frame die using Soft Navy, Schoolhouse Red & White Woodgrain card stock and then arranged the die cut stars & the Star Frame die cut onto my stamped background. 

I had a crazy idea to cut some of the red & blue stars off the spare die cut frames and attach them to the white frame which I had used on my card and this was something I regretted once I'd started as it was so fiddly to do, but I do like the result of adding them.

Other supplies used - 

Simon Says Stamp Black Ink Pad, Tacky Glue, Double Sided Tape, Guillotine Comfort Paper Trimmer, Berry Red, Navy Blue & Simply White Crystal Drops, 

The lovely folks over at Simon Says Stamp are generously giving away a $25 gift voucher for the fabulous Simon Says Stamp store.
