DRS Thursday challenge-Banners and Flags

Happy 4th of July weekend everyone!!!  If you are like most people around the states this is your first day of the weekend or at the very least, your last day to work!!
Today's challenge is to use flags, pennants or banners.  I used our American Flag and pennants.  DRS stamps: Tiny Patriot 801H, 766G USA Thanks to our Brave, Large Open Plaid 641P, Argyle Background 438P and Polka Dot Background 688P and some pennant dies from Our Daily Bread Designs, Stair Step die from Cheery Lynn Designs Twine and pop dots.
For the Argyle background stamp at top, I used Hero Arts White Unicorn Pigment ink (very opaque), stamped once on blue and once on red.  I then cut out the red diamonds and glued them to the blue.  I used the stripe (open plaid) on a sheet of white then die cut pennants same with the polka dot background (Festive Berries Distress and Mediterranean Blue Brilliance).
My Tiny Patriot and USA are colored with Copic Markers: B21, B24, B18, R14, R46, E31, E34, E33, R20, E000, RV00, C-0 and C1.
