Happy 4th!!

Hi Everyone,
Today I have made a Happy 4th card to give to a friend of mine. I made this card 7 x 3 1/2 which  I embossed with the polka dots folder. The base layer is 5 1/4 x 3 embossed with the star folder. I cut the firetruck at 1 3/4 plus the layer from the Independence Day cartridge. The sentiment~Happy 4th is from My Creative Time~My little Firecracker stamp set.


I am entering this in the following challenges:

1.) My Craft Spot Monday Challenge #14 ~Seeing Stars
2.) Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Me Monday #66 Happy 4th~Use Red, White and Blue
3.) Celebrate the Occasion #20 ~4th of July-Red, White and Blue
4.) My Sheri Crafts #63 ~Independence Day or Canada Day
5.)   Die Cuttin Divas #21 ~Planes, Trains and Automobiles

Also a big "Thank you" to Arlene from WaterDots for passing me over 5 more awards and Chris from Get Inspired With ChatterScene for the Irresistibly Sweet  Blog Award! Wowzers, that's super sweet ladies!!  Please visit their blogs, they are very talented and have some awesome projects! Thank you again!!

  1. Oh my gosh, Sherrie, this is so awesome! How did I not see that cut on Independence Day before? This would be the absolute perfect card for my uncle who was a firefighter his whole life but is now fighting bone cancer. This would make him so happy -- if you don't care, I am so going to scraplift this! Also, this would fit into the Die Cutting Diva's challenge of Planes, Trains and Automobiles! (http://diecuttindivas.blogspot.com/) As always, thanks so much for the amazing inspiration :)
