Happy Monday! On my live video last night, I shared how to make a super fun card for the 4th of July (Independence Day in the US). I used the Scrappy Strip technique to make the background and introduced in some Gilded Leafing!
Click the link below to watch the replay from last night’s YouTube Live video. And don’t forget – I’m live every Sunday night at 7p CT!
For the Scrappy Strip background, I used Real Red, Poppy Parade, Balmy Blue, and Misty Moonlight cardstock scraps. The Star was die cut in Misty Moonlight and the sentiments are Basic White — “Happy” is stamped in Poppy Parade while “4th” has some Gilded Leafing on the bottom.
