Happy Birthday America and Jenny Cade!

I LOVE the 4th of July!  I always have. I love the colors, the fireworks, the summer, the swimming, the burgers and everything associated with this wonderful celebration of our nation's birth and what that stands for, FREEDOM!  I have some great childhood memories of really fun 4th celebrations but the we really upped our game in 1987 when I had a baby girl, about 10:30 at night, while the fireworks were exploding!  We've been celebrating ever since and this year will be no exception. Here's the card I made to celebrate this great day:

Stampin' Up has some fun new paper that is pre-embossed with a glossy white design ( and the new In-Colors) and by using a sponge dauber, you can add color to the non-embossed areas of the paper, as I did here with some red ink on a stripe pattern background. We also have a new star punch!  I heat embossed my greeting on vellum paper and attached with some Washi tape. Fun and easy to make card!

Have a great 4th!
