Coloring Down the Lines – celebration

Hello Stampers!

I hope you had a great day yesterday.  I had a request for cards and a box and I worked on that.  I have it ready to deliver today.  I took some pictures that I will share later.

Today is our Coloring Down the Lines blog hop.  Since July 4th is a few days away we decided to use a Red, White, and Blue Color combo with the added piece of a Celebration theme.

 I had seen several cards that had used the Work of Art stamp set to make flags.  I decided I wanted to try my version of one.  I punched out a heart using post-it note and put it on the card.  I then stamped the large scribble on top.  When I removed the post-it I had a heart shape in the middle.  I then used  the strip to form the stripes of the flag.  When it was all finished it needed something so I took my glitter pen and traced around the shapes to make it sparkle.  Here is my version of the flag.

I also stamped some stars on the front of the envelope but I wanted to show you how I lined the envelope.  I found directions on Pinterest.  Basically you take a square based on the size of your envelope and round 3 of the corners.  Then all you have to do is attach it to the inside of the envelope.  I had tried this before but never been successful as I was over thinking the process.  This is so easy!

Are you ready to see what the other ladies on the hop created?  Head on over to Amanda’s blog – Our Crafty Playdate  to see what she did with the challenge.   

Thanks for visiting me today.  I will be working on my Convention swaps again today.  I need to get a few completed and my Stampin’ Up order comes today so I will have the necessary supplies to finish up the few that are almost done.  Have a Wonderful Wednesday!
