Happy 4th of July to the USA and boy will it be a hot one or at least here! We are still in the upper 100's and with humidity. So many people will be hitting the roads or staying at home, but everyone will be celebrating and I hope safely! We will be going to friends for a big BBQ party and that is always such great fun! And speaking of hitting the road, today I have my "
Road Trip" over at Artistic Outpost, if you want to have a look. I was certainly inspired by Tim's
July tag for 2013!
I just wanted to do a simple tag to celebrate the 4th and all the freedoms I have! The awesome flag is from
I Brake For Stamps and I colored the stamp with Distress Markers, cut and shaded with Vintage Photo. Don't you just love my flagpole? It is a coffee stir stick from Southwest Airline that I saved.
The background was stamped using Tim's star and embossed, then inked in a striped fashion and of course that water hit the tag! And between the stars on the flag and tag, we have all 50 baby!
We are taking our Patriotic Celebration to visit the following lovely challenge blogs:
