Red White and Blue

We couldn't let this date go by with a little tribute to our friends across the pond, so the colour choice at Less is More this week is red, white and blue.
Here I used a little cruise ship die cut from Quickutz... I'm on Cunard's Queen Victoria in the Med at the moment celebrating a couple of very large birthdays, so I couldn't resist this image!
The sentiment is from Paper Smooches and Tattered Lace, each word layered from several diecuts of card.
This is a simple die cut card using a background layer for the butterflies made from sploshes of Aqua Tint inks, spritzed with water and then sprayed with a little Spray and Sparkle which gives a fabulous sheen!
The butterflies are from Memory Box. The stitched panel is from an MFT die.
I do apologise for not visiting so many of you but I won't be using wifi too much aboard ship!

    Awesome cards as always Chrissie, loving those butterflies in particular with the delicate water colours behind the intricate die.
