Stampin’ Up! Flower Patch for the 4th!

Hey there! Happy 4th of July! I'm having one of the most hectic (and fun!) summers in a long time, which isn't leaving much time for blogging. I actually got up at 5:30 a.m. just  to post this, and if you know me at all you know I DON'T DO EARLY very well! LOTS going on at my house, all good, which means this summer is whizzing by, and by looking at my calendar, I don't think it's going to slow down.I leave for the Stampin' Up! Inspire, Create, Share Convention in less than two weeks, then a quick family vacation to French Lick, Indiana, then keeping my grandson, Jaxon, for a few days. Add in Punch & Technique Class, Christmas in July Classes, a handful of hostess stamping parties and July is completely BOOKED!

I created this card a few weeks ago using my new Flower Patch stamp set:

I was going for a fireworks-Fourth-of-July effect. What do you think?

The "celebration" image is from the Project Life Remember This set.

Pacific Point, Daffodil Delight, and Real Red inks stamped on Whisper White.

After stamping and assembling I added a thin layer of clear Dazzling Details. It takes several minutes for this sparkly glue to dry so leave it laying flat.

Stampin_up_flower_patch_3 - Copy

Inside is a sentiment from the Hip Hip Hooray Card Kit inked with Stampin' Write Markers.

That's all for now. Low-key plans today. I will be stamping and my hubby will be farming, but we are continually thankful for our freedoms to decide how to spend our days!

Here's a supply list for my Online Store:
