Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
Today is our country's 250th Birthday.
Happy Birthday America!
There will be lots of fireworks displays all over the country and I'm sure there
will be some firecrackers going off in our neighborhood too.
When I saw Judy's sketch at Freshly Made Sketches, I thought of firecrackers.
I don't have a die for that so I made my own from some paper scraps. I found
a piece of patterned paper with fireworks in my stash and used it for the tips and
circle with the sentiment. Some glitter glue brought in a bit of sparkle. It's
old and kind of clumpy and I needed to rub most of it off, but
it did leave behind some sparkle.
These firecrackers won't cause any fires or scare any pets. The best kind!
If you're in the US, Happy 4th of Julyl
Celebrate safely and stay cool.

What a fantastic idea, Bonnie! Use the sketch and celebrate the 4th all in one fun crafty session.
Happy 4th AND 250th Bonnie! It's so hot here 90's + that being outside, even for fireworks isn't fun - so I'll be watching the Boston celebration in the Hatch Shell and on the Charles River tonight on TV! What a great card for the sketch! Julia xx
