red, white and blue celebration and challenges
happy independence day to those who celebrate! i spent a happy day in the sun today at a wooden boat festival with many loved ones and am now home for the evening. we'll catch the fireworks show on TV since DH has to rise early for work tomorrow. in honor of the holiday it seems there are numerous challenges requiring the use of red, white and blue. alright then, i'm in.
to start i decided to work with this fun vintage 4th of july image which was offered up as a freebie by wonderful karen at lunagirl moonbeams blog. i wanted to work with an ATC since that was a requirement for one of the challenges i wanted to enter. i worked with a cardboard ATC base, designer papers and stickers and an angel (here playing the role of liberty) from a clip art page in a stampington and.co. magazine. i know she's big but so is freedom!
here are my challenge entries:
scraps of color blogger challenge "display the red, white and blue"
mema's crafts paint your patriotism/red, white and blue
wicked wednesday ATC challenge #91 red, white and blue
and don't forget the "from the past" challenge at the cheerful stamp pad. i'm not entering since i'm on the design team but this ATC certainly fits as a vintage piece and some of us on the DT have focused on 4th of july related images.
enjoy people, i wish freedom and grace to all.
love to all.

happy 4th!
i have another goodie for you, hoping to inspire you to join the "from the past" challenge at the cheerful stamp pad.
this is another vintage image generously made available for free on our challenge sponsor vintage image craft's facebook page. i am utterly charmed by this sweet little boy. i envision him all dressed up for an independence day parade where he is proud to have been picked to play "uncle sam." before heading out for his big day he offers a spray of pretty blue flowers to his mother. well, that is what my imagination says! since the image itself is so sweet i kept my embellishment simple, opting for pretty coordinating papers and stickers.
if you celebrate independence day then may you have a safe and enjoyable one. and i hope you have the day off!
you don't have to make a 4th of july creation for the "from the past" challenge. any vintage goodness or theme reminiscent of past days will do. and a randomly selected winner will get some wonderful images from our sponsor.
have a great week. love to all.
