New! Make-It Americana-Inspired Collection from Ranger

The newest collection from Ranger's Make-It line of stencils, stamps and accessories is quite literally celebrating the Red, White and Blue! There are two gorgeous stencils (Stars & Stripes and Fireworks); a perfectly patriotic stamp set called Americana; brand new Freedom Stickles (packed as a trio with old favorites Christmas Red and True Blue called Liberty); plus two brand new Archival Ink shades (Old Glory Blue and Old Glory Red) packed in a set of mini ink pads with Shadow Grey and Jet Black called American Made; and finally the ultimate set of coordinating Liquid Pearls: Old Glory which includes Firecracker, White Opal and Blue Velvet. 

For my first card, I've used a little bit of everything except the Liquid Pearls. A diecut heart filled in with the Stars stencil and some Old Glory Blue sits atop a small panel of the Stripes stencil in Old Glory Red. I stamped the hat twice: one in Old Glory Blue and Once in Old Glory Red, then cut the red part out and mounted it on top of the blue. The hat is worn by the handsome eagle who is stamped in Dark Roast Archival. The sentiment was placed directly on the stripes, and the whole thing is backed by a panel of Fireworks stenciled half in OG Blue and half in OG Red, then painted with Christmas Red and True Blue Stickles.

Lightly inked edges, colored pencil detailing, machine stitching and an A6 kraft cardbase complete the design.

All of these new Make-It products are available in the Ranger Store... you should probably check them out, ASAP!
