The Cuttlebug Spot: Independence Day

This week we are honoring Independence Day at The Cuttlebug Spot. I had stars in my mind from the beginning so I decided to use my 2 x 2 star embossing folders on this one. I also embossed the red and blue strips of paper with my Fiskars line plate. I then weaved the strips to form my background. I think I need more practice with the weaving, but I like how my first try turned out. Now go visit The Cuttlebug Spot to see some awesome creations by the Design Team.

Just Rite: Red,white, and blue sketch

Happy Saturday to everyone. Fourth of July is just around the corner and Just Rite has a challenge this week celebrating our Red, White, and Blue colors along with a sketch. Although the projects do not have to be patriotic, I decided to make this one to thank all service men and women. I think they do an outstanding job to protect our freedom.

For this card I took out my Just Rite fonts to create my own word collage. I used all 50 point for Trompe, Brayton, Times Roman, and Special Occasions font. The oval is from the Harmony classic set. I stamped the center in blue then stamped the outer border in red. I really enjoyed working with the different fonts on this one.

Here is my card. Enjoy your weekend.
