Title: Three Cheers for the Red, White and Blue
Hostess: Kelly - Sunstamper
Keyword: JUN13VSND
Day/Date: Friday, June 7
Time: 8:00pm EST

Summer = Independence Day

Independence Day = July 4th

July 4th = Red, White and Blue!

I can’t think of summer without also thinking about one of my favorite holidays, Independence Day. July 4th is hot dogs, fireworks and the good ol’ Red, White and Blue!

My challenge for you is to create a card using the colors of red, white and blue. It CAN have a patriotic theme but it doesn’t have to.

VIEW THE GALLERY FOR THIS CHALLENGE HERE.

UPLOADING INSTRUCTIONS:

1. ALL VSN CREATIONS MUST BE UPLOADED BY 10:00 PM EST ON Monday June 10.
2. You have 45 minutes to complete the challenge.
3. We have a special gallery for the Dogs Days of Summer VSN. When you click on Member Galleries to access the drop-down list, either scroll to the very bottom of the list (or just hit the End key which will take you straight there), and upload to that gallery.
4. Please remember to put in the correct keyword JUN13VSNI when uploading your image. Copying and pasting the challenge keyword is recommended to avoid typos.

GREAT challenge Kelly! Normally I do patriotic cards, which I adore, but today I took it in a different spin!

Love this challenge! My husband proposed during the fireworks on 4th of July, so it holds a special place in my heart. I'm not going patriotic, but sort of patriotic inspired.

Quite a story behind this simple card:

JUN13VSND star spangled day by tessaduck - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers

Periodically I invite similarly passionate paper crafters to my house for a Paper Tricks afternoon. I prepare a few projects for the tricksters to try. This was one of the cards from the last event. Well, one of the tricksters leads our paper crafting "club" at a nearby craft store. She decided to demo the inlaid die cut trick last Monday night when we met-- but the store manager wouldn't let her use the star border, since it wasn't inventory. Eventually, we (Yes. She flubbed it and I stepped in. Buttinski that I am.) demo'd the trick using a much more detailed Spellbinder's borderability. Honestly folks! It doesn't have to be complicated!

Brenda,

Sorry, I do not know what the inlaid die cut trick is - do we have a tutorial, further instructions?

[sunstamper]

Thanks everyone - great cards in the gallery so far! Still plenty of time to play!

[mrslaird]

Hmm. Well, I actually have two cards for this challenge, but my camera battery is dead and my phone pictures are apparently too big for the gallery. Soooo, I'll be back in a couple of hours with my cards.

You sound like me. My card reader in my laptop quit working! I figured out how to photo with my mini iPad, and email it to my laptop. Then I have to rename it because Lydia says all iPad photos are same and have to be renamed. So now it takes longer to photo and upload than to make the card! LOL

I will try these challenges tomorrow. Love a red white and blue card! Why do these things always happen during VSN?

Thanks for the challenge...it opened my creative door a little bit...although stickles and glitter seems to be a predominate theme for me. :p

Drat. I finally got to work on a few of these challenges and now I'm getting an error when try to upload. Oh, well maybe next time.

[annie15]

I was so busy this weekend and didn't get to participate. I squeezed in this one on Sunday afternoon but didn't have time to upload, then I tried uploading late on Monday and the server was down. Oh, well, I thought I was share anyway.
