4th of July Birthday Card

Happy Sunday! Beth from Beth's Beauties here with you today. We will be having weekend promos in which a certain stamp set will be free with your order of $35+. Awesome, right?! This weekend, through Monday, you can get the Raisin Boat Red, White & Blue stamp set at no cost if you make a $35+ order.  Here is what I made for inspiration:

I started with a white piece of cardstock and stamped the fireworks image from the Red, White & Blue set with VersaMark ink.  Two of them I heat embossed with gold powder, and the other 3 I embossed with a silver glitter powder.  I love how the gold looked on the white, but once the ink blending took place, the silver glitter was definitely more showy.  I then used Distress Oxides in Fossilized Amber, Candied Apple, and Blueprint Sketch to blend with brushes on the fireworks.  I then came back in with Chipped Sapphire DO to fill in the rest of the night sky, then blended Black Soot DO around the outside edge.  I also sealed the ink with a few light sprays of Mod Podge matte clear acrylic sealer so the ink wouldn't rub off.

 The sentiment stamp was also from Red, White & Blue, I simply masked off the USA at the bottom right portion of the stamp since this is going to be for my dad whose birthday is July 4th!  Once stamped with VersaFine Onyx Black ink, I heat embossed the sentiment with black powder.  I wound Celebration Trendy Twine in a circle and glued it to the card front before adhering the sentiment banner with foam tape.  The final touches were GMD New Years Sparkle enamel dots.

Here is a look at the Red, White & Blue stamp set:

How do you get it for free?? To claim this deal, simply add Red, White & Blue to your shopping cart and continue shopping at SumMore Fun. Once your order *excluding* Red, White & Blue reaches a subtotal of $35, Red, White & Blue will automatically be marked down!

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

Happy Friday and welcome back, everyone! 
We hope you all enjoyed your 4th of July! For this bi-weekly challenge we kept with the red, white and blue theme. Now, we do realize everyone has sent out their Happy 4th cards so we added photo inspiration that will carry you beyond the holiday and into the summer. It's also a great mood board to get you started on those 4th of July scrapbook layouts or how about those Labor Day cards. Either way, we hope you'll join us and we look forward to visiting all your blogs.
