I stamped my Sweet Moka Betsy with Memento Tuxedo Black & colored her up with my trusty Copics. I fussy cut her out and popped her up with a bit of foam tape onto one of the  Doodlbug Stars & Stripes CS Journal stickers. For my mats and BG layers I chose a combination of Kraft CS, and more Fun dp's from Doodlebug's Stars & Stripes Essentials kit.To finish it all up I added a Sweet TE Star Border Die cut, TE's Seeing Stars die cuts, both topped with a touch of Star Dust Stickles and a bit Doodlebug's Stars & Stripes Essentials ribbon too... 8-)
