I have not done a Curtain Call Color Challenge in a while, so I decided I needed to do it this week! I love them and miss it when I do not do one! This week Stacey has a great inspiration photo and colors for this up coming weekend here in the U.S....Independence day! 
Here is what I came up with! A bold patriotic card! I started with a Crumb Cake (Kraft) card stock base and then stamped the retired Canvas background in Crumb Cake ink on it. Then I "dirtied" it up a bit with a sponge dauber and Crumb Cake ink. Then I made my textured Real Red and Whisper White stripes and "dirtied" them up a bit with the Crumb Cake ink. I then punched out three circles of Crumb Cake card stock and stamped and "dirtied" them too. Then I added the Night of Navy stars to the circles using brads. I used the Rough Type Alphabet to stamp "USA" in Night of Navy ink on Whisper White card stock.
I finished off the card by curling the corners of the striped panel up and
distressing the whole card just a little.Thanks for looking!

Great use of this week's colours :D Love the bracket and the stars on the circles. Thanks for playing the Curtain call :D
I do love your layered and distressed stars! So glad you joined us again this week! I have been soooo strapped for free time. I've been wanting to join your Stampin' Celebration challenges. It's just been impossible. I'm beginning to think I should have taken the summer off from blogging...it's that bad! I'll get to it join you one of these days.
Awesome card! Love the circles behind the stars and that bracket! :o)
