CYCI128 Patriotic Clean and Simple


Happy glorious Monday, peeps!  The sun is shining, the air is cool and it's a beautiful day!  I made a very quick card today using the Can You Case It sketch:

CYCI#128
 John's nephew is in the Navy reserves and is at Officer Candidate School in Quantico, Virigina.  I totally forgot that I bought these Our Daily Bread Patriotic Collection papers, so I thought these would be appropriate for a card for a guy:



I hope he's not offput by the swirls and the little enamel star, LOL!  


The sentiment is from Paper Pumpkin; the stamped star is from Every Occasion, and the stitched circle is Lil'Inker!  I lined the inside with white cardstock so John & I can each write a little something to Phil to let him know we are praying for him!

The wee one is back from vacation, fresh and ready to show us her confident bike-riding abilities!  I know...no helmet, no sneakers, and she's riding one-handed!  But just look at that smug look on her face!  And NO training wheels!  I think a bigger bike might be in order come birthday time!


Enjoy your day!

Love your red, white & blue card, LeAnne! The paper works beautifully with that circle & star panel! Can't believe how much Cassidy has grown up and now she has mastered riding her bike! I am still learning to ride my bike at 50! LOL Congrats to her! Hope you had a great day! :)

What a fun patriotic card LeAnne!! I like the subtle swirls and mix of patters. Oh boy, is little Miss Cassidy growing up way too fast!! That is a confident "just look at me go" look on her face!!
