Challenge #228 - Holiday~ 4th of July

Evening Folks.  I already posted on my blog earlier today, However when I came across this challenge at: Addicted to Stamps and More I knew I wanted to submit a card.  Even though I would say my favorite Holiday is Christmas without a doubt.  I figured there might be a lot of those flooding in.  So I went with another favorite of mine, The 4th of July.  I love this Holiday for so many reasons, first, I must tell ya I'm a gal that tears up easily and the 4th always brings me to tears, reminds me of how blessed we are to live in the USA.  All the men and women who have fought and died to keep our country free.  Second,  I come from a long line of soldiers and I'm proud of that. and lastly it's in the summer and I LOVE the hot humid days of summer. 🌞
 So with that explanation out of the way, onto my card.  I have only 2 or 3 stamps for the 4th.   On this card I used only two, but cut the sentiment in pieces to fit on the card.  I used a star embossing folder for the background and wrapped it with silver twine.  I added a few star brads to make it pop a bit.   I hope you like it.  Perhaps I will make sure to read the rules and maybe submit a Christmas card too.  Those are my favorite to make.  
Thank you so much for stopping by my blog.  Please browse around and check out my other cards. I'd love to hear what you think of them.  I'd also like to encourage you to follow my blog.  It's so rewarding to see people sign up. 
Thanks again.
Keep Smiling😊Keep Stamping
