250th Red/White/Blue Celebration!
Welcome to our Saturday Blog Hop at Create With Stamping Friends. Happy 4th of July and our 250th year! Our design team is celebrating today by creating projects to celebrate with you!
I made my own flag and added some layers from the Beautifully Celebrated Bundle. Since I created this card in advance of today, that bundle is now retired but the sentiment was so appropriate. I also added some pretty stars from the Wonderful Stars Puffy Stickers:
Stampin’ Up! Products Used:
- Stamps: Beautifully Celebrated
- Inks: Blueberry Bushel
- Cardstock: Blueberry Bushel, Poppy Parade, Basic White
- Designer Paper: Waterside Retreat
- Tools & Accessories: Beautifully Celebrated Dies, Wonderful Stars Puffy Stickers, Stampin’ Dimensionals
Card Recipe:
- Card Base: Blueberry Bushel Cardstock 8-1/2 x 5-1/2. Score and fold at 4-1/4.
- Layer 2: Waterside Retreat Designer Paper 5-1/4 x 4. Stamp the sentiment at the bottom with Blueberry Bushel Ink. Glue to card base.
- Layer 3: Basic White Cardstock 3-5/8 x 2-1/2. Glue to card front above the sentiment and 3/4″ from the left, flat.
