Red, White and Boom!

 Hello Friends

We are soon approaching our Independence Day celebrations so I have been making some fun cards for friends and family!  Today,  I am featuring Gardening Tomte, Patriotic Car and Firecrackers.

         Background Photo Freepiks

Design Steps:

1.  Using the Gardening Tomte, Firecrackers and Patriotic Car dies cut out the following colors of card stock: Kraft and black (cart), white, tan, navy, star DP and kraft (Tomte), red, white, navy, black and gold (fireworks)

2.  Assemble the Tomte and cart as shown above.  Assemble the firecrackers as shown below

3.  Using the second from the largest Pierced Rectangle die cut out a blue rectangle.  Assemble the Tomte, cart and fireworks on the rectangle as shown above

4.  The base card is A2 white, 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 piece of red, and a 4 x 5 1/4 DP fireworks paper

5.  Glue the red to the white card base then add the DP.  Add a red and blue Rik Rak border

6.  Pop up the blue rectangle to the center of the card.  Add a few stars and the sentiment your card is complete

 Hello Friends

We have a new release just in time to celebrate the 4th of July!  It is called Patriotic and the collections has 12 wonderful designs all perfect for our Nation's birthday! Check out this release HERE!

I am using 3 of the new dies the Fireworks, Patriotic Car, and Patriotic Camper.   I decided to use a slimline design to accommodate all the fun pieces.  

Design Steps:

1.  Using the Patriotic Camper cut all the pieces with the following card stock colors: light blue, navy, red, white and black 

2.  Assemble the pieces using a fine tip glue and I also found tweezers helpful

3.  Using the Patriotic Car cut out the pieces in the following colors of card stock: navy, white, red, black and light blue

4.  Assemble the pieces using a fine tip glue and tweezers

5.  Using the Fireworks die cut out the flowing pieces of glitter card stock: red and sliver.  Also cut out some regular navy card stock

6.  The card base is a white slimline measuring 3 1/2 x 8 1/2.  The star embossed card stock is 3 1/4 x 8 1/4.  Begin assembly on the embossed white piece gluing down the fireworks first

7.  After the fireworks are glued down pop up the car and camper.  Next add a strip of black for the road measuring 1/4 x 8 1/4 that has been stamped with sentiment and embossed in white
