My card base is Heavenly White, the embossed paper is part of the spring package called Aquamarine Mica/Metallic just perfect for sea image.  The focal image is colored on Neenah Solar White.  All of these papers and many other beautiful papers can be found at PaperTemptress.  We all know beautiful cards begin with excellent card stock.  If you hurry up there is a great sale going until the end of this month with all papers 20% off, and some discounted even more so go on by and check out the savings you will get.

Happy Birthday America!

A very happy Wednesday to you all!  Hope you week is going well so far.  My week has been good and will get better on July 4th at 2pm as I start vacation for 8 days!  We will be having some friends over and enjoy some pool time relaxation and some good food, then we will go up to Verrado to watch the fireworks.  They are so pretty there and we get to see lots of them across the whole valley.  I sure hope you have some good times planned for the upcoming holiday weekend.

It is challenge time again at Creative Moments and this time our theme this challenge is "Celebrations" and what a perfect time as we are celebrating the 4th of July.  Our sponsor is "Sassy Studio" and when I saw this little cutie I knew this what I wanted to do!  Her name is "Captain Americana" now who does not like the super hero's :)

There is a great sale going on the rest of this week until – Monday July 7th…EVERYTHING @ PaperTemptress.com is going to be 30% off…unless it is already discounted more than 30% such as the ALL the Hambly products and ALL the ribbon which are both already 60% off….Wow…the biggest sale EVER!  Enjoy!



I used a sketch from Sketch and Stash #6, it worked perfectly for this image, which is colored on Cryogen white and you can get it from the Paper Temptress.  My DP's are from Doodle Bug Patriotic Parade I just love their papers.  The border is a MS punch and the sentiment is one I grabbed from Pinterest.

 

My image is colored with copics and I did not list the sorry.  I have added a little stickles to the white areas to add a little spark to the card.
