Happy Birthday USA

YES I am seriously addicted to this paper
can't believe I have had it for so long and never used it
this is Kraft card stock from PTI A2 size
the Forth of July is another form the Soft Spoken package
I inked this as well to make it more vintage
added the blue square DCWV card stock
and a few stars cut from George and Basic Shapes
I printed the banner on the computer
and a little red stickles and some faux stitching
entering in a few challenges

  15. Love your card. Just beautiful. OMG girl once you start using Kraft you are hooked it is my favorite and I use it all the time! Love the stitching and how you distressed the edges of your card. Just stunning and really like the aged look of it. So glad you could join us this week at Whimsical Wednesday.
