Fourth of July Fireworks Celebration Card & Banner

Happy Fourth of July! I hope you all are having a wonderful day celebrating our nation's birthday!

I am enjoying creating different shapes and patterns with the new Painter's Palette stamp set! I used the medium and small paint swishes to create the fireworks shape. The background stars are from Balloon Celebration and embossed with silver embossing powder. The greeting and number four are from the Number of Years and Large Numbers set.

The inside of the card has starburst fireworks in Night of Navy and in Real Red. This starburst stamp comes from the Perpetual Birthday Calendar stamp set. I love this stamp set because it is so versatile. Not only can you decorate a perpetual birthday calendar, but you can create amazing backgrounds!

Here is another patriotic project! I made a banner with red, white, and blue rosettes and firecrackers.

The rosettes are made with Real Red and Night of Navy DSP, Whisper White cardstock, and Silver Glimmer Paper. The red striped rosette is 5" across. The navy rosette is 3" across. The star was punched with the medium star punch. The white starburst shape is from the Baker's Box Thinlits. To make the red rosette cut 2 strips of 2.5" by 12" Real Red DSP and score every half inch. To make the navy rosette cut 2 strips of 1.5" x 12" Night of Navy DSP and score every half inch.

The firecracker is made by cutting three strips of cardstock and cutting them with the fringe scissors. The Real Red strip is 3" by 11". The Whisper White strip is 4" by 11". The Night of Navy strip is 5" by 11". Place tear and tape along the back of the navy strip and roll. Place tear and tape along the back of the white strip and roll around the navy strip. Do the same with the red strip. Glue a 3" by 3/4" handle to the top and punch holes to string.

Have a Dino-rrific Birthday!

Today is my nephew's fifth birthday. To celebrate, I  made him this birthday card using the No Bones About it Stamp Set. He loves dinosaurs!

I stamped each of the dinosaurs in a diagonal line across a 5-1/4" x 4" piece of Whisper White cardstock. Then I stamped the leaves between the dinosaurs to fill in some of the negative space and to provide interest.

 

I used Real Red, Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie, Pacific Point, and Garden Green ink pads.

I created the number 5 embellishment using the Large Number Dies, the smallest Deco Label Die, and the 2" Circle Punch. I adhered the circle to the center of the Deco Label. I added the edge pieces of the dimensionals sheet to the back of the number 5 to raise it.

After adding the number 5 embellishment to the center of the card, I stamped the sentiment Look Who's Turning above with Archival Basic Black ink.

The inside is stamped with another dinosaur wearing an adorable party hat! I stamped the group of spots around the top of the inside to look like celebratory confetti.

I stamped the envelope to match the inside of the card. I hope he enjoys his birthday card on his special day!
