Happy Fourth Of July:God Bless America Card

Happy Fourth of July!!! Hopefully you are getting to spend the day off with family and friends. Maybe getting to see some fireworks as well!! I'm just glad my little family is together on this holiday. With deployments, we've missed a lot of holidays together.

So anyway, today, I have a card to share with you! I created it in lieu of the fourth of July!!





I created the adorable little boy from KaDoodle Bug Designs: Little Patriots!! How cute are they?!


I paper pieced him together and used Tim Holtz Frayed Burlap to ink on the sides. I added embossed stars to his shoes/flag and white gel pen accents.


The card base was cut using Cricut's Elegant Edges and the label was cut using Cricut's Art Philosophy.


I stamped the sentiment from Peachy Keen Promotional stamp using embossing ink and then used Snow white embossing powder over it. I then glued a piece of vellum on top. I took my picture before the glue was all dried on the vellum, so that is why it is darker on some part. 


The little sequins were from the Dollar Tree and the twine is from American Crafts. 


That my pretty simple 4th of July card! Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a great day!!



P.S. I have a couple of sales to let you know about!! They are great deals too!!
