Independence Day Mini Album | with Traci

Can you believe it's already July?! This year has flown by for me, but I'm really looking forward to tomorrow and celebrating Independence Day!  I've got my mini album ready to fill with pictures of our family BBQ, a local parade, and lots of fireworks.  

I used Doodlebug's Yankee Doodle and Patriotic Picnic collections for this mini, and mixed in lots of wonderful petite prints.  The print on the cover is blue jean Daily Doodles card stock.  

One of my favorite things about Doodlebug is that everything matches so it's very easy to mix and match collections, embellishments, and petite prints!

The silver foil on the Yankee Doodle die cuts is hard to see in photos, but trust me ... it's so pretty!!  Perfect for celebration projects.

Isn't this pocket cute?  I cut it out of the red bandana cardstock from Down on the Farm, but it works great in my July 4th book!

My favorite washi tape of all time might be ant parade .... so cute!!

I hope I've given you a little red, white, and blue inspiration today!   Have a wonderful 4th everyone!

Red, White & Blue Inspired Cards using Vellum | with Virginia

Happy July! I dug into my Yankee Doodle collection stash and challenged myself to just use the sprinkles vellum paper along with some ephemera to create my cards.  The sprinkles vellum is 'da bomb' as it adds a beautiful sheer texture with delicate raised shiny stars to the cards!

This camper card would be great for anyone you know embarking on a camping road trip or heading up to their trailer for the Summer.

Send a wagon load of 'Thank-you's to that special someone, they will surely appreciate your kind sentiments!

Lastly, I couldn't resist dipping into the Down On the Farm collection for the moo-valous cow doodle pop to make this fun Birthday card!

Thank you for stopping by and please have a safe and happy Independence Day.
