My card for today's blog hop features Patriotic AJ. I think that this is such an incredible digi and it was so much fun creating this card with him. I printed the image twice coloring the flag on the first image and AJ on the second image. I used Prismacolor pencils and Copic markers for all of my coloring. I then cut AJ out and mounted him to the flag image using pop dots for depth. The cardstock layers are also attached with pop dots. To finish the card I punched the corners with a photo corners punch and added the little star ribbon. The brim of AJ's hat and his shoes have been coated with Crystal Effects for dimension and sheen.
I will be sending this card along with several others to Operation Write Home, a wonderful organization that makes sure heroes all over the world receive cards to keep in touch with home. Please visit their website.
