Cricut Patriotic card

Cricut Patriotic card
Quick and Easy card Monday

Hello, friends!

Only a few more days to take advantage of my mystery stamp set special AND get the June Stamp of the Month. It will be gone forever July 1st. 

Today, I have a patriotic card that I made for the Bitten By the Bug Weekly challenge blog using the Artfully Sent cartridge. The overlay was meant to depict three flowers. However, I thought it looked like fireworks exploding in the sky. Now don't get me wrong, I will still use this at some point as the flowers. I think it is perfect for a July fourth card!

Speaking of Bitten By the Bug, if you are interested in joining in on the fun as one of the team members, see the graphic below.

I love how these fireworks came out on your card. The way you used them, they don't look like flowers. This is so fabulous. Love the bling, too.
