July 4th

We usually travel to New England during the last part of June to attend a July 4th celebration held by very good friends. We received our invitation last week. We can't go this year, so wanted to send our RSVP in the same type of theme. I used the Tim Holtz embossing folder on kraft cardstock. Then used Distress Inks Barn Red and Faded Jeans to highlight the embossing. No white in Distress Ink, so I found a nice Colorbox white pigment for the center stripe. Used Distress stickles in Diamond to highlight some of the letters on the embossing. This was a fast card, and I may use this same design to make some more Operation Write Home cards for the effort in which our Thursday stamp group is participating.
