Patriotic greetings...

I hope everyone had a festive and safe 4th of July.  We had family over, then I went down to Little Rock with my sister for a couple days.  I'm now back home and trying to catch up.  I wanted to share a few patriotic projects with you.

This card was made with the Swirly Scribbles and Stars dies and the Thoughtful Banners stamp set with the coordinating new Classic Label punch.  The background is embossed with the Stars embossing folder.  

The same products were used to make this fun Hershey Nugget holder using our new 2x8 Cello Bags.

We made these at our demonstrator meeting and it was designed my Crew Demonstrator Kathy Weston - cute! Nothing better than a little Uncle Sam punch art!

This pretty card was made by Crew Demonstrator Sharon Milburn for a red, white and blue challenge.
