Hey there! Here's a little bit of what we did last night for the 4th: sparklers for Oakley!

I had issues with my camera on the night setting, so this pic is really blurry, but I still caught the joy on his face!

His mommy and Uncle Logan with him the whole time, so he always supervised.

Despite those pesky mosquitoes, we had a great 4th!

Thank you for being patient. I know you really come by to see me to see some Sunday Swap Day creations:

First, Katy Simecka paired Garden in Bloom with English Garden designer paper. She added a pop of Melon Mambo ribbon, flower center, and sentiment layer!

She left the inside blank except for those adorable bumble bees crawling in and out. So easy and CUTE!

Next, Jan Rodrian used the Circle Card Thinlets Die with the I Think You're Great set. She used Mint Macaron Envelope Paper, Gold Glimmer-punched stars, and a Soft Suede-punched Fun Flower to back her greeting:

Of course, Circle Cards ALWAYS flip, so Jan used a sentiment from A Dozen Thoughts for the flip side!

The watercolor look is a big trend right now, and the new Watercolor Words set gives you lots of choices! Susie Wood chose "just for you" from this set for her creation:

Sue Berreth used "hope" with a flower and heart from Watercolor Words. This is a lovely flat card that still has a lot of depth by embossing the image layer with the Brick Wall folder:

Finally, Ruth Bingle combined Rose Red, Pink Pirouette, and Pear Pizzazz, then adding PInk Pirouette 1/2" Seam Binding  while using "you're the best" from Watercolor Words:

This card is left blank to be ready for almost any occasion!
