Sensational Holiday

Welcome to another Sensational Saturday at Sugar Creek Hollow. 
This week we have a PATRIOTIC challenge
for you.  We want you to celebrate your country and its
history
and make your vintage, shabby chic or primitive card
using the colors of your country as represented by its flag.
 Here is my card with an image that I got from The Graphics fairy. This is a great vintage blog and she has a lot of different vintage images. This image is Lady Liberty and of course she is carrying the American flag in honor of the 4th of July.

Most of the ladies on the Sugar Creek Hollow Design Team are from the
United States so patriotic cards have a red, white and blue theme. 
One of our members is Canadian and she has used a classic Canadian icon
and done her card in red and white as those are the colors of the
Canadian flag.  We are really looking forward to getting a colorful
history lesson of the countries of our challenge participants.

This week we will reward a random winner with a badge to display on her
blog and a digi of our choice.  The Design Team will choose a Card
of the Week and the creator of that card will receive a badge to display
and will be in the running for a Guest Designer spot.

As you can see the Design Team is very patriotic and has provided some
wonderful inspiration for you.  To get details of their cards, just
click on their names and you will be taken directly to their blogs.

This is stunning. The image is so patriotic and I love the rosette (something Martha Stewart shows this time of year) and the beautiful red bow.
Hugs!

Heide, I just love that rosette embellishment. The whole card is wonderful and I really like the pearls and pearl flower...they look like little fireworks to me.
