Happy Independence Day


Hope you are all enjoying time with your friends and family or doing whatever you like best.  My husband and I will be having a quiet day trying to distract the kidlettes (Lily and Tommy) from any loud firecrackers.

I made this card for a patriotic swap, and threw caution to the wind and took my distress ink pads direct to the paper after embossing my statue of liberty (by Stampin Up) and little white dots for stars.  I tarted up the metal star a bit with some embossing powder and used Tim Holtz' tool for distressing the edge of the panel and blue card stock.  All in all it sure was messy, but I like the result.

Happy 4th of July,
JR
