Happy 4th!

Hello and Welcome to Sherrie Scraps with Passion! 
Hi Everyone! 
Happy Monday~I hope you all had a fabulous weekend! Can you believe it's the last day in June? Wow, where did the month go? Crazy! 
Today, I have a fun card to share with you that I made for Arya's daycare Teacher. I will be sharing a treat box tomorrow that she will also be giving her along with this card before she leaves on her 4th of July break.
I was excited to find a little time to not only get in my craft room to make a gift for her Teacher but to play along in some of the challenges as well.
I used a lot of My Creative Time stamps/dies on this project:
I started with a A2 card base, using papers from Lasting Impressions. I cut the center panel in white and shadowed a piece with dark blue. I added a fun border using the Fun Stitched Edges metal die. I cut the circles using the Scallop & Stitched Circle die and adhered them in place. The stars are cut at 3/4" from the Art Philosophy cartridge.
The 4th of July is from the My Little Firecracker stamp set onto a square that was cut using the Square Stitched Goody metal die. I added foam dots for dimension and then tied on a fun twine bow. I finished with placing homemade enamel dots in the corner from my friend Carri.
I am entering this in the following challenges: 
1.) Die Cuttin Diva's Challenge #171 I Vow To Thee My Country
2.) Paper Issues In the Navy
3.) Cuttin & Stampin Challenge-4th of July
4.) Bitten By The Bug 2 Independence Day (Art Philosophy cartridge)
5.) My Creative Time's Designer Challenge Patriotic Theme-Color and Sketch challenge
