Jeanne, this was an awesome challenge. I wasn't going to play, but I always feel like THOSE are the challenges I should play! So, here's my card!
A country style star! I thought of a warm cozy house while I made this card. You know those pillows people use for decoration? That's where I was going with this. Hope you like my card! And I hope everyone has an awesome 4th of July weekend!!
BTW: DON'T WE ALL LOVE STUFF FOR FREE!?!?!?! If you want some FREE templates to make some different shaped cards, here's the link:(I actually use it to print templates for when I do projects with my daughter!) http://familyfun.go.com/printables/p...attern-703380/

I added this in for yesterday's challenge, too. I think it looks quite American...what do YOU think?
*Be back in a bit to comment on all your beautiful cards!! *

Jenna, this is one of the prettiest cards ever! I just love the country folk gingham feel of it! And the sentiment is just so, so true and beautiful! Love it.

You're the Star today! What a beautiful "Country" Card. It was so nice to see it to set the 4th of July Holiday Weekend to a nice start. This card should be in a craft magazine! The colors are wonderful and, yes, I do love the bow with the little star inset. Absolutely perfect. Happy 4th.
