ColourQ Challenge #39

Can you say withdrawal??? Ohmygosh, what on earth did we do with ourselves before internet?? I don't even remember! But I miss it, and I need it and I'm totally LOST without it!!! Thank you to those of you who are still popping by for my scheduled posts and for leaving your sweet comments!! It is sooo appreciated!

So amidst the chaos that has become my life, I still managed to make a card, photograph it and will hopefully be able to link up before my "borrowed" internet craps out on me. So far, so good...*fingers crossed!* I can't believe this is my 11th time playing with the girls at ColourQ!!!

Here is my card for this week's consideration:
Recipe:
Stamps: SU Fourth of July
Ink: Real Red, Brocade Blue
Paper: SU cardstock in Real Red, Brocade Blue, Night of Navy, Bravo Burgundy and Whisper White
Accessories: Lattice die, large & small star punches, Dazzlin Diamonds glitter, rick-rack die, 1 1/4 & 1 3/8" circle punches, Real Red buttons, dimensionals, glue dots, star embossing folder

This is my first easel card too!
I love the patriotic colors!
Lots of fun details, like paper rick-rack, buttons, glitter and embossed background!
Glittered stars!
Fun, fun, fun!!

I hope everyone has a happy and safe 4th of July!!

That card needs to be framed. It is awesome. You are so creative. I wish I lived close enough for you to teach classes and me learn from the master.
