Lisa is always so good at being right on with the themes for our Blogger's Challenges. This week we are doing Red White and Blue. I had lots of fun making this fun flower pot with candles. And the card is just using up more of those pre-cut scraps I have laying around.
I found this tin in the dollar spot at Target. So cute, matches with the flowers from the flower folds die so nicely, don't you think? I am so glad I finally got this die. I have been making so many things with it. At mommy and me we made flip flops, barrettes, hair bands, pins and baseball caps with it! I will take pictures of the stuff when I finally get it all unpacked.
Stamps: None
Paper: Real Red, Brilliant Blue, Whisper White
Ink: None
Other: crimper, ribbon, flower folds die, candles, pop dots, sucker sticks
Now for the fast and simple card.
Stamps: Four Square
Paper: Brilliant Blue, Bashful Blue, Real Red, Whisper White
Ink: Brilliant Blue
Other: small flower punch from punch pack, ribbon, rub on, embossing folder, pretties kit

Hope you have a fabulous holiday weekend!
