Had a fun couple of days making this Money Wallet...
I was inspired by the Flag Day Challenge at Shopping Our Stash.
They wanted us to use the colours of our national flag...
Mine is The united Kingdom..Red, White and Blue...
I live in Scotland, which is Blue and White but it is part of the UK.
I came by the challenge via Crispyscreations.blogspot.co.uk
I had never used the flag stamp before,
although I had it for some time...
This is my Money Wallet.....
I stamped the flag using distress inks and water.
The aeroplane and sentiment where stamped and heat embossed.
I die cut the beating heart line and layered it up for dimension,
popping blue foam behind.
This is the inside......
Smooshing with distress inks, die cutting, stamping and stenciling.
I kept the left hand side light so that I could hand write a sentiment x
I wanted it to look like a travel tag...
I have a neighbour who is shortly joining British Airways
as a steward and tried to work with that theme as well x
Thank you so much for finding time to stop by...I really do appreciate it x

Oooh yes - often don't like union jack stuff - find them a bit brash, but this is sophisticated and lovely. It's a real advantage , with the current crop of 'flag colour' challenges, to live in a union and therefore have a choice of flag colours! I toyed with the red and white of the St George , but went for the classic tricolore in the end too!
Yummy textures on your money pocket Mac! great project with the flag colors.
Wow, wow, wow--brilliantly crafted project, Mac! So creative & artistic--just love it!
What a fabulous idea and beautifully executed Mac - this is a stunner
Blessings

WOW! Not only WOW, but TRIPLE WOW! I really love how this project turned out. I love everything from the stamps you used to the way that you used them. Your stamping techniques alone were so perfect. I lived in London for about a year and a half, so you had me at the Union Jack! Thanks for sharing your talents with us and giving me something to truly enjoy looking at and feeling inspired by.

Love this grungy union jack wallet, Mac! Thanks so much for playing along at Craft Stamper Take It, Make It :)
What a wonderful gift! I love the grungy texture on the flag and the "ecg" trace is just brilliant with the glossy accents. Wonderful take on the challenge. Thanks so much for playing along with The Male Room, and I'm sorry to be so late commenting! Deborah, DT.
PS - What stamps did you use to get the "ecg" trace?
