Happy 4th of July! And what would the 4th be without a little apple pie?! My card uses the newest digital stamp set from Sweet 'n Sassy stamps. Isn't it yummy?!
I colored the pie with Prismacolor pencils and cut it out and popped it up for dimension. The background panel was stamped with another new release from SNSS, Beautiful Borders. The heart was cut using my Cricut and Lyrical Letter cartridge and I embossed it with Swiss Dots. I added some Frosted Lace Stickles to the pie top to look like the sugar sprinkled top and a bit of stitching and sheer ribbon sewn to a button finished it off.
For this fun card I used the brand new stamps from Sherrod Studios, By the SeaShore. Aren't these two the sweetest? I miss the beach so much, especially during this time of the year as I grew up on the Big Island of Hawaii. I colored Annie and Ollie with Prismacolor pencils as well as the bucket which is a separate image in the set. I cut it out and popped it up. The seashells are also in this set as a border stamp which I stamped 3 times side by side. The rest of the card base I embossed with Divine Swirls. To finish it I added some Distress Stickles to the sand and a bit of knotted twill.
Now how about a little sweet something for you? I own a little Etsy shop, Paper Blooms. If you see something you like in my sold section or are wanting something in a specific color just email me, I am happy to do custom orders!Would you like to win the goodies above that are from Paper Blooms?!

Have a wonderful 4th of July, and remember, we have true freedom only in Jesus Christ!
