We went to a friends home for a cookout and then went to watch a fireworks display at night. It was a great day to celebrate the freedoms that we enjoy here in our land.
The card I am showing today is one that I made for the sketch challenge #392 on Splitcoaststampers. Korin was our hostess and she gave us a great layout to work into a card.
For my card background and the rectangle layer, I used designer paper from Stampin-Up's's "attic boutique" collection. I cut my doily in poppy parade with a die from Cheery Lynn Designs..
My image is from the Our Daily Bread Designs set "bird and butterfly labels". It coordinates with Spellbinders labels 18 and that's what I cut it with in soft suede.
The sentiment is computer generated. That's it for me today. I am all set to enjoy another fabulous summer day. So until next time........God bless.
Some other challenges:
1. ODBD shining the light challenge #114 is anything goes using an ODBD stamp.
2. WordArt Wednesday-either use their word art or use your own encouraging or uplifting sentiment
3. Cupcake Craftroom has a July challenge of lots of layers.
4. Shopping Our Stash wants us to use 3 of items from their list. I used 2 die-cuts and a doily.
Another beautiful card, Mary! Love the soft pretty patterns on the paper and the gorgeous doily behind the beautiful image!
