Patriotic Card

Hey Everyone!

   I have had this card saved on my computer for awhile and never got around to sharing it. I havent used my Cricut since my last post but I have a good reason for that. I am expecting baby #2 and nausea hasnt been my friend. It's not as bad as my first pregnancy but the feeling is still there and enough to make me not want to do anything!

Also, we are closing on our house on July 8th. I am soo excited! Im not sure if I'll get my craft room right away, (the whole baby #2 thing) but I am fortunate enough to have a construction worker as a fiance and he plans on building me one. Phew.

Anyway, for some reason 4th of July crafts are my rut. I cant seem to get motivated with any of it so I am happy that I actually made at least one card this year.


I also discovered a Fiskars punch called Americana that I've had in my stash. I used it on the corners of the white mat. Gives it a nice touch. :)

Thanks for visiting! I will be back (hopefully soon!) with more projects to share.

Supplies:
Papertrey Ink Cardstock (base)/red
White Mat
Ribbon from my stash
Sentiment from Stand & Salute
Stars are from Plantin Schoolbook
White gel pen
Pin It!
