Patriotic Pocket Card

Pocket cards are always so much fun to make - tuck in little coordinated tags, notes, cash, check or gift card - whatever suites the occasion! Today's project is from Esther Asbury and she created this in a patriotic theme, perfect for America's 250th birthday celebration!

All sets used on today's card are currenlty at 20% OFF as part of our current Product of the Week featuring ALL sets in our Patriotic Series! A great time to grab what you need. Details at end of post, so check it out!

Esther created this pocket card with a fun belly band, though this non-opening card contains a pocket to hold fun items, the belly band need not slip off. It's a wonderful feature. I have long loved belly bands!

The Liberty Bell (sentiment)

All designer papers used are digital that Esther printed out.

Esther has 2 inserts in her pocket and this is the first.

The Red, White & Blue (flag, sentiment)

This is the second insert.

The American Eagle (eagle, sentiment)

And flip the card over and this is the back, again using printed digital paper along with a stamped sentiment from

Old Glory (sentiment)

Thanks so much, Esther, for this fun patriotic project today!

Patriotic Collage

Good Monday morning on this fun week preceding America's 250th Birthday! For this week only we are featuring our ENTIRE Patriotic Series at 20% OFF, so it's a great time to pick up what you might have been wishing for! The sale details are included at the end of this post, so be sure to check it out.

Karen Letchworth shares a fun card with us today in a collage style where she used just about every set in our Patriotic Series to create her card. She has the central focal sentiment focusing on Veterans as she notes that without our Veterans and all they have sacrified, we would not be here today celebrating America 250!

So here is a huge THANK YOU to all of our Veterans and those who have and are serving to protect this great land that we love.

Lots to take in! So just take a minute to absorb it all.

All stamped images and sentiments are included in our

Patriotic Series.

The fireworks panel in the center along with the striped and star designer paper are all from a retired paper pad by Echo Park.

So celebratory for this coming huge birthday for America!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, AMERICA!

Thanks so much, Karen.

Coneflower Seed Packet

Good morning! We've had a very cool and now very wet summer thus far and some here are still planting seeds. Deb Felts combined our seed packet set with our coneflower set for today's lovely card. What we all love about that seed packet is that it combines so well with any and all of our floral sets - total bonus!

And note that the coneflower set used today is one of the sets featured this week as our Product of the Week at 20% off thru Saturday - so be sure to scroll to the end to check out those details.

Loving the rusty/coppery tones of this card paired with the gorgeous golden/yellow tones.

The coneflower instantly becomes a black-eyed susan when colored as such!
