Wishing my fellow Americans a Happy 4th of July! I know it's almost over for some of you, but we've had a lazy day. I started my day watching Amy's PTI MIM video using string art with die cuts--love the look! Late last year I got this beautiful twine in a sale to make 4th of July cards & just opened it today. Oh well, I'm getting a head start on next year's cards! For some reason, I thought of the Floral Foliage die, so gave it a try. Different, but kind of fun! I added a big white sparkly dot to make it festive. The background is a panel of Blueberry Sky stenciled with the PTI stars stencil I made for This MIM card in May. The sentiment is a very old unmounted stamp I got at a convention years ago. The panel was sprayed with Shimmer Spritz & mounted to a panel of Pure Poppy. Next year think I better start mailing my cards the first of June--haha! I'm also entering CAS-ual Fridays, SSS Monday, SSS Wednesday & Die Cut Divas. Thanks so much for stopping by.
Fabulous card Greta and I LOVE that red, white, & blue twine...think I need to find me some of that! Love your stenciled stars too. A perfect 4th of July card!! :0)
