Happy 4th of July America!

I would like to wish everyone in blogland a safe and happy 4th of July.  This is the Land of the Free, and the Home of the Brave ... a day to remember all those men and women who sacrificed so much for our freedom.  As America celebrates its 237th birthday proudly wear your red, white and blue!


I have another card to share with you.  The background paper is Liberty by BoBunny.  A star was created and layered using Spellbinders dies.  I attached it to an Action Wobble Spring.  These are so much fun to use!  America was stamped in VersaMark and embossed with gold embossing powder.


I think the card needed something else so I cut out a swirl using glitter paper and added a bow created from Cherry Cobbler seam binding.


A peek at the inside.  The sentiment was stamped in Night of Navy and embossed with clear embossing powder. 


Happy Independence Day!  Enjoy this day with family and friends.

What a beautiful card, Donna! Our neighborhood always goes a little nuts with the fireworks, so we basically ate dinner in our dining room and got a wonderful fireworks display right outside the dining room window:)
