Merry 4th of July

We’re enjoying a the 4th with some of our usual traditions. The parade was the morning, and we had a great time. The girls had fun riding on the float and passing out 4th of July trinkets from the party store.  Now, I’m just pulling things together for a laid back dinner with friends and some fireworks later.

Meanwhile, back at the farm, the CHF crew is going full swing into Christmas in July. I have been stamping for days, but just now have the ok to post a few of these cards that I have made with Aimee Nugent’s beautiful new Christmas images. They will be available for purchase on the 11th. I love the solid silhouette images – they make for striking, quick cards which is a must at Christmas. They also allow for some fun techniques. The sentiments are a new Christmas Expressions set from Mona Lisa. They will also be available this week. I’ve got some more projects ready. I’ll try to get them up in the morning.

 For now, Merry Fourth of July ~
