Hi ho! I actually thought to take a photo of one of the cards I made (small batch, given time constraints) before I popped the whole lot of them in the mail! I was spending some time recently on the various craft sites I visit... you know, retail therapy... and I searched for Doodlebug Design since their paper and stickers are always so adorable. Well, they had the cutest patriotic stamp set (with matching paper, natch) I have ever seen, and you know the whole kit and caboodle had to go in my shopping cart. And then, I had to find/make the time to create something with my new supplies so it wasn't all just for naught. Sometimes it all turns out to be for naught, but I hate when that's the case.
I used what little time was at hand to whip up this simple but adorable (IMHO) design. You can't see it well in the photo, but the Stickles adorn the hearts on the flag, as well as some of the outermost sparkles of each of the fireworks.
I hope you have a wonderful Fourth of July. Whatever you do, I hope it's fun, and I hope the sun shines so you can BBQ to your heart's content -- if that's your bag. If it's not, well, I hope the sun still shines, because we all need sunshine right now.
Supplies used:
Doodlebug Design Inc. Land That I Love stamp set, die set, and patterned paper
Lawn Fawn Outside In Stitched Star Stackables die set
Copic markers in B29, R29, E57
Stickles in Twinkle
