Last Minute Manda Clipart ~ Happy Independence Day

Hi Crafty Friends,
Time to share another project using the fun clipart from Last Minute Manda.
Today's project uses an image from the Little Bees are Patriotic PNG set.

The image was printed and then cut using a Scan N Cut. The die cuts are from Jaded Blossom and so is the sentiment and outline.  The pattern papers are from Doodlebug Designs.

Such a fun image to use and there's a similar one on the inside.

Be sure visit the LMM FaceBook Group for more ideas using both clipart and digital images.

Hi Crafty Friends,

Are you ready for our next Jaded Blossom challenge?

This month's challenge is Red, White, and Blue.

Be sure to visit the JB blog for some fabulous inspiration ideas presented by the design team.

Here's my project using all Jaded Blossom products.

I used Star Dies, Card Mat Dies, Border Dies, and Bless the USA.  

I used the zigzag border die to create the striped background.  The sentiment was heat embossed so it would really pop.

It's time for our next challenge at Pearly Sparkles.

I always need masculine cards for my stash so this is a great challenge!

I used this adorable doggie from Digital Delights by Louby Loo and added to a stamped background on which I used Jaded Blossom Party Splatters stamp set and some washi tape. I Copic markers to color the image.

Cut it Up Challenge #177 ~ Red, White, and Blue

Hi Crafty Friends,
We're celebrating with Red, White, and Blue for this challenge at Cut it Up Challenge Blog.
Our fabulous sponsor, The Cutting Cafe, provided our files but you can use any die cut(s) you choose.  I used a file from the Window Box set.

I popped up the mat with the star cutout to go over the card base (with star cut out) and just added a Jaded Blossom Dimensional banner stamped with a sentiment from JB's Celebrate America set.  A few sequins and rhinestones finished the card.
I hope you'll join our challenge.  Just follow the Cut it Up link above.

Always Fun Challenge #65 ~ Patriotic
