God Bless....

America.... well, actually God Bless Us All!! {Ha- does that sound like Tiny Tim in the Christmas Story :-) Anywho- I played with some new Waltzingmouse Stamps Claire designed in honor of those of us in North America (below the Canucks) as this is our Independence Day!! My Canadian friends celebrated on Monday and today is our turn.
 
Used the Color Throwdown colors for a trendy Independence Day Card. All those fireworks are images included in this set - several sizes and if you look closely the Bermuda Bay firework in the  background is actually tiny stars-- OH MY WORD- tiny but, perfect image- the detail is amazing! Added a little bling, stitching, tag banners, and heat embossed the sentiment over Lady Liberty who was stamped and fussy cut.
 
  


Used the SCS sketch but, rotated to the left.



Wishing you a wonderful July 4th!! We are in the throes of lots of rain {wishing I could send it out west for the wildfire} and wondering if the day will be spent inside celebrating- either way- it's all good- time with family and friends!

Thanks for stopping by!! Love when you do and appreciate all the kind words!!
