Happy Birthday, USA - Part 2

Happy 4th of July, everyone!  I hope you've all had a fabulous day.  For my American friends, I hope you're being safe if you're partying or playing with fireworks.  I decided to create a couple of Independence Day cards in honor of today's holiday.  Here's the second:


The image is Toasting Properly, by Tiddly Inks. It was colored with Copics, then Diamond Stickles were added to the white shades.  The papers are from We R Memory Keepers.  The sentiment was printed on my computer.  The ribbon and gems are from my stash.  The circles with stars are from Bo Bunny.

Thanks for stopping by!  I'll see you again on Thursday!
