Patriotic Card ~ I Love America (post #1)

I have two cards to share with you today.
This one is called a cascading card and tutorials can be found all over the internet.
It has a little of this and a little of that.
Mostly it has a lot of the good ol' red, white and blue.



*Cascading card base fits easily inside a 5.75 x 4.5 in. envelope.
*Card front panels cut with red cardstock to fit the fronts of each panel, punched using the EK Success Starry Night border punch and adhered to the card.
*Patriotic boy design cut at 2.25 in. from the Cricut A Child's Year cartridge.
*Scalloped oval placed on the CCR mat using the Cricut Craft Room Basics cartridge, stretched to 3.75 x 2.25 in. then cut.
*Oval placed on the CCR mat using the Cricut Craft Room Basics cartridge, stretched to fit inside the scalloped oval then cut using patriotic pattern paper from my scraps. (brand/name unknown)
*Red, white and blue ribbon tied together to make my little patriotic bow.
*Glittery patriotic paper from my scraps (unknown brand/name)

May your day always be filled with love.
Hugs,
D~
