July Stamp of the Month Blog Hop

Welcome to our July Blog Hop! We have some really fun ideas for you this month! If you've hopped here from Melissa Robinson's blog you're on the right track! Here we go.....

Our July Stamp of the Month is called: American Celebration!
I used Desert Sand and Cranberry for this card for a more Americana type look. The border was created using the end of the flag image!

I also wanted to use colors other than the expected ones. Here I used Honey, Juniper and Ponderosa Pine. With other colors it's easy to see how this set works for any occasion you want to celebrate!

Here is the whole set:

This set is only available during the month of July. Click here to order yours now!
 Doesn't it make you want to celebrate!

    Lovin' the border on your card, how clever to use an image unlike it was intended....Way to think "outside of the box"!

    Great way to show versatility! Using the flag for borders...how about thin strips to create your own stripe paper...which I always seem to run out of. Great idea!
