Happy Independence day my fellow Americans! If you are not American, I hope you still have a great day!
Anyway, today's card was made using a NEW Cricut Craft Room exclusive called Independence Day - Freedom. I really love these cuts! Particularly the cut I used on this card. I actually gasped when I first saw it. So pretty!!
Here is the file: https://www.box.com/s/dbe4644cf5bc219fde16
 |
| I used Authentique paper. The pin is from Close To My Heart in an embellishment pack called Bling Assortment. |
 |
| The stamp is from Close To My Heart and is called American Celebrations. This stamp set coordinates with the Art Philosophy cartridge. It is hard to get a good patriotic stamp set and this one is a total winner! |
 |
| This is the inside of the card, and it is stamped using the American Celebration stamp set. |
Thanks for stopping by today!

4th of July cards always make me smile -- love making them and love seeing all your creativity! Thanks!
Hi I love this blog and used to check it every day. I have to say, however, that I'm very disappointed at how long your advertisements for Close to My Heart have become. In this post, there is more about CTMH than about a Cricut project. I love this blog for the inspiration and not the sales pitch. I think it is much more appropriate for you to include all that info on every post of YOUR personal blog, but as this is a shared endeavor (as I understand it) it just seems unprofessional. Don't mean to be nasty, but it really has made me stop visiting this blog over the last several months because I don't want. To be bombarded by the monthly CTMH deal every day
Love the card, so patriotic.
I agree with the anonymous commenter above but I just scroll pass all the CTMH info as I am not interested but super glad and appreciative that you offer the projects on your blog everyday. I get sooo much out of it, that scrolling past is not a problem.
Thanks for sharing!
Your card is so pretty it looks like a vintage window. Thanks for sharing the file with us. Thanks for sharing,God bless you and yours.
