I was having such fun with the red, white, and blue theme that I created two new cards for today and tomorrow. I'm also including tutorials so that you can create the cards too. These two cards used the same basic elements but each has its own distinctive look.
On the card above look closely at the whisper white and the real red. The texture was created with the same embossing folder. On the whisper white the image is upraised. On the real red, it is depressed into the card stock. Flipping the card stock after going thru the Big Shot is what creates the different look.
