Celebrate with a Flag at Exploring Cricut

Hello Crafty Friends,
 
Today brings a new challenge at Exploring Cricut.
 
The Challenge..."Celebrate with a Flag"
The United States and Canada will be celebrating "their" day this week. Canada Day is today, whereas, Independence Day is Thursday. Many people have BBQs and enjoy firework displays. How will you be celebrating?
 
Here is my Design Team project...
I used the sketch from Your Next Stamp.
I used a portion of the American flag instead of using the entire flag with all 50 stars.
It is a time to celebrate while showing our love for our country and the freedom it offers.

Materials:
red, blue, white, and yellow card stock
striped pattern paper
Independence Day Cricut cart ~ flag 2" and USA 1"
Celebrations Cricut cartridge ~ star 2" and title 3/4"
red, white, and blue pearls
barn red and jean blue distress ink by Tim Holtz
 
Other Challenges:
 
Hope you will join us at Exploring Cricut for this week's challenge. Be sure to stop by to see the design team projects. Lots of red, white, blue, and flags! 
 
  Looking forward to seeing those projects to help celebrate our Independence.
 
Stay Creative,
Georgiana
