Bitten By the Bug 2 Challenge - 4th of July

Good Morning BBTB2 Fans! Our design team sister Michelle is hosting our challenge this week. And since we are fast approaching a holiday weekend she has selected a 4th of July themed project (if you don't live in the US, you can substitute a holiday from your country). It needs to be a new project and use a Cricut cut to meet our challenge rules. The design team have some fabulous inspiration so make sure to check out their projects too!

On this card I used Artbooking for the star border and tag. I then used Ultimate Creative Series Sampler for the 4th of July. I got all the wonderful patriotic paper at Hobby Lobby.

I thank God everyday for richly blessing our country and I hope all of you continue to pray for America!
