Happy Fourth of July to all my American friends. I am posting some cards I have made over the last few days. First up is a birthday card in red, white and blue--in honor of Independence day and also to play along at Seize the Birthday where their topping option this week is red, white and blue.
I used the sketch from Freshly Made Sketches #193 and am also playing along at Happy Little Stampers CAS where the challenge is stamping.
I bought a sheet of the cutest patterned paper at a LSS yesterday and immediately cut into it to make a really simple birthday card. I am linking it up at Curtain Call Celebration and Addicted to Stamps and More #151 Anything Goes.
I used some sheets from a new paper pad by Doodlebug Sunkissed which has some really fun summery patterns to make a card for WPlus9 Throwback Thursday #5. I pulled out some of their older dies, Quilt Cuts, and made a fun pattern. I used another WPlus9 die for my thank you sentiment.
I am also entering this card at Simon Says Monday Summer.
Off in search of fireworks.
Thanks for Visiting
