This is the only big alphabet set I have and I needed a way to make it stand out. Since the vellum was handy, it seemed perfect!
The 4 is just strips of paper I glued together under the vellum. I wanted to add some bling, but ran out of time.
What do you think?

I think I LOVE it! The 4th of July is my very favorite holiday! Hmmm...maybe I don't need to buy another stamp set for my Independence Day cards this year!
Thanks so much for playing my challenge!

Wow, I love someone who can think like this and put strips of paper together to do what they need. Then the tracing on the vellum--this is brilliant. Just brilliant.

Love the diagonal sprinkling of stars underneath the big 4! The red July is just perfect.....each element is strong and together they make a simple powerful statement!
