We had friends over yesterday for a nice summer meal eaten outside, followed by a bike ride to a nearby beach to watch the fireworks over the lake! So fun!
Usually we are always traveling this time of the year and I rarely get around to make a card for this holiday. This year we are home but I still left it till the last minute and only had time to make a few cards for my Thursday night friends. So I kept it fairly simple.
Stamps: STAMPloration (brush strokes), Winnie & Walter (sentiment)
Dies: mymomenta (star), Avery Elle (zig zag border)
Other: embossing folder (Darice), star gem (Recollections)
Challenges:
Inkspirational #112 "Anything Goes with Red"
STAMPloration CAS Challenge June
(my card even has some navy blue in it)
ETA: It's already July, so ,of course, this one has closed already, duh!
Just Us Girls #350 "Summer"
Just Add Ink #318 "Just add S"

Hallo Susanne,

Liebe Gruß

A perfect card for celebrating the 4th. Love that the image panel reflects a flag. Thanks for joining us at Just Add Ink.
This is such a great design! I love the star with the stripes and that textured background is beautiful. Thanks for playing with us at JUGS!
Great abstract card - I love how the embossing creates great texture. Chantell JAI
Oh wow--what a great use of the Brush Strokes & now I "need" that embossing folder! This is one terrific card, Susanne! I would love to have seen fireworks over a lake!
Great combo of texture, colour and shape for a fab celebration card. Thank you for joining us at Inkspirational Challenges
Mit dem 4. Juli habe ich zwar nichts weiter "am Hut", aber Deine Karte sieht großartig aus! Stars and stripes mal anders :))
Viele Grüße
Christine
What a classy card for the 4th! Happy summer!
I love the touch of gold you've added to your fabulous 4th celebration card! Thanks for sharing with us at Just Add Ink this week. x
Stylish and wonderfully bold, Susanne ... fab background and a brilliant swooshy flag! Sounds as though you had a marvellous 4th! Hugs, Anita :)
So glad you had a lovely 4th to enjoy with friends. Love the bold red starry background for this breezy 'flag' and its star. It's a wonderfully flowing design. (I made some cards, but alas, didn't mail the first one!) TFS & Hugs
Fab 4th of July card. Sounds like you had fun. xxx
La tienne est très belle aussi!!
Merci beaucoup Susanne, pour ton gentil commentaire en français.
Bon week-end
