Go Team USA

I've been slow to do anything. Here. Anywhere. The Olympics are taking my time. I love watching them!
In any case, today's freebie is an offering to this summer's games.
The ribbon and bow were just grey, so I masked an American flag paper I had over them.
The heart I made from a shape. Doubled up the shape, used different styles in each portion. Cool, right?
The phrase is done with Goudy Stout font. Then I applied a glassy style on it.

Have a fun week!
I'll try to post something else. Maybe.

America Charm

A freebie that came from an action. I got the action from Delicious Scraps, I think she still has it on her site.
I like the flag paper I've been using, so I made a pattern out of it.
How to make a pattern: open the background that you'd like to turn into a pattern. Choose the Rectangular Marquee tool and decide how much of the whole thing you want as a pattern. Then go to Edit, from the drop down menu choose Define Pattern, a window will open up and just give a name to your pattern. Then when you open your patterns window, it should be there.
The action makes the shape and then asks you to choose a color for the heart charm. I chose red. Then it asks to choose the color or pattern for the ribbon. I chose the flag I made. And that's it.
I added the USA letters in Ravie font, and added a bevel.

It's a .png file, a bit under 6" square. Enjoy!
