Celebrate Freedom Blog Hop



Hi friends!  You should have hopped over from Ashley's blog but if you didn't you can start at the beginning over at Lisa's.

I hope you had a wonderful 4th of July no matter where you are in the world.  We had fun with parades, picnics, fireworks...the whole sha-bang.  So in honor of the 4th, I made this cute rosette decoration for the holiday...
 I wanted something different from the normal banner that I usually hang for all the holidays.
 The letters were cut from Plantin Schoolbook cart at 3.75" and I used Stickles to give them some bling.  You can kinda sorta see it on the "A".
 
Hope you like them. Maybe this will be my next tutorial :)   You next stop is Pam.

Don't forget that there are a lode of AWESOME sponsors for this hop...

Building Block Graduation Card

Hello, everyone! Melissa here on to share a "building block" style card with you. I made this one graduation themed, since there are a ton of graduations going on right now. Hope you enjoy this card, and are inspired to try it out yourself. Here is the tutorial I followed from Split Coast Stampers. To make it easier, I will give you all the measurements, here. It looks harder than it is, I promise. Start with a piece of cardstock in your desired color that is 5.5 x 10.5. Put the 10.5 inch side along the top of your score board or paper trimmer, and score at 3.5 inches and 7 inches. Fold the first score line in a mountain fold, and the second in a valley fold. You should end up with a "z" fold card. The next part can get a bit tricky, so make sure you watch the video to fully understand what I am about to explain. On the back side of the "valley" fold, take a ruler and pencil and mark these measurements: 3/8 1 3/8 1 5/8 2 5/8 2 7/8 3 7/8 ...

Welcome to the Marks Finest Papers, a Heinrich Company May Blog Hop!  This month's New Stamp Set Releases are   Featured  May 13 Kiss Me &  Plywood  For the first time, I decided to use both stamp sets together.
