FCCB Challenge #66: Happy 4th!

It's time for another challenge at FCCB and today we are celebrating the 4th of July which is right around the corner :)  I had a good time putting this card together but alas I am being way too hard on myself!  I had intended to leave the words white with some inked edges...well my sponge had other ideas and I ended up covering the whole thing versus just the edges.  I used Designer's Calendar for this card and I really like the font for this.  I LOVE, LOVE the punch I used.  It is from M's and is part of the American Girl collection...while I don't enjoy the AG collection (shhhhh I don't mean to be mean but those doll kinda creep me out!!)  I LOVE this punch!  Oh and did I mention it was on clearance?!?! :)

I hope you join us for this challenge!  Please use red, white and blue in your projects!!!  And as always please include atleast one Cricut cut!!!  I can't wait to see what you have created :)

    I LOVE all the inking on the letters - and the stars are such a great touch. What a great find on the punch too!
