IC441 Celebrate AMERICA

Photo Details

Poster: hobbydujour

A Grandin Road catalog came in the mail and I found loads of inspiration in it and passed the idea along to Audrie. I thought others might perhaps find inspiration as well.

My 4th of July card was inspired by:
BUNTING and
UNCLE SAM.... whom I turned into a patriotic female angel

A beautiful take on the inspiration, the image banner at the top is in perfect sync with your inspiration piece!...and the patriotic angel just tops it off with an extra friendly touch of fun! Thanks for being our guest hostess and sharing your inspiration with everyone!

A wonderful patriotic card, Sallie, and a great job combining your 2 inspired pieces. Your coloring is terrific, but once again, I am amazed at your brayering!

Thanks Sallie for providing the inspiration journey today

Love your folksy, inspired creation, and I don't know why, but my eye particularly picked up on the beautiful graduation of your blue bg shading!! I had a quilted wallhanging pattern a number of years back with folksy angels that this brings back to mind. A fun patriotic tribute done up with your impeccable attention to colour, style and detail.
