Celebrate the 4th of July card

Be sure to go HERE for my Blog Candy Giveaway!!!

Hello Everyone,

I just wanted to post this quick card that I made before we take off for the day. We are planning a little trip to Lake Superior for the afternoon.  The weather is excellent and it should be a lot of fun!

For my card that I made today is to celebrate the 4th of July. I am entering it in a couple of challenges as well. My card base is 4 1/4 x 5 1/2. base layer at 4 x 5. I cut the scallop from the Birthday Bash cartridge at 4" and embossed it with the stars folder. I cut the second scallop using a SU 2 3/8 scallop punch, which I also embossed with the stars folder. I cut the rocket at 4 1/4 from the Independence Day cartridge plus the layers. The sentiment in from My Creative Time~My little firecracker set.


I am entering it in these challenges:

More than Favors~Wacky Wednesday #43~Red, White and Blue
Scrapalicious USA #9~Sketch
Scrappy Moms Terrific Tuesday ~Stand and Salute (which I don't have~used Independence Day)

I hope you enjoy your day!!
