This is for the Tuesday Challenge over at the Crafty Secrets Forum found here: Forums at Splitcoaststampers
"Celebrating 4th of July" is the theme, so I used the main image from CS clear stamp set "STORY OF ME" to show my
little LAD hitting the history books early. It's a best seller you know!
Aquapainter and SU markers were used to color the image, book title is computer generated.
Hope you like it! Come Join our challenge, we have a lot of fun!

this is so totally fabulous: I so love your scalloped cutout and how your image overlays the cutout. Wonderfully creative and wonderfully crafted. Kudos.

What great use of that stamp set - awesome card Pammyjo! The sentiment is perfect paired up with a patriotic card and I love the scalloped circle and arched panel and gingham through the button, too!

What an inspired layout! I especially love the gold cord and the contrast between the rounded top of the focal image layer and its navy matting layer; TFS!!!!!!
