Fun on July 4th

I have to say this was such a fun layout.

I made this 2 page layout with "Independence Day". The paper I used was from Die Cuts With A View-Summer Dreams Premium stack. I used my Cutterped zigzag blade to make the edges. I inked everything with Tim Holtz-Brick.

In doing this page I cut the rocket at 3inches inking the blast and used stickles to make it shine.

The frames for the rocket is 2 3/4, 2 7/8 and 3inches. Using my blue marker to dot the edges.
The frames for the hat are 3, 3 1/4 and 3 1/2. I embossed the hat with the houndstooth cuttlebug folder and inked adges. I also used stickles around all the edges.

The firetruck was cut at 2 1/2 . I inked edges and used Signo Uniball pen to add detail. I also used pop dots to give it a little dimention.



The I LOVE USA was cut at 3 in all three colors. Since there is not a shadow for this I offset each color enough to see all colors and cuttlebugged the top layer with Swiss Dots.

I did the same with the 4th of July as it has no shadow. I cut at 5 inches in all 3 colors and used the Uniball pen to add detail. Again using pop dots and stickles.

I cut the banner at the top at 1 1/2 using the ink and Uniball pen. Added a little ribbon and buttons to it and enjoy.

The frame for the pictures for page 1 are as follows: 3 7/8 x 4 1/4 &6 x 6 1/2.
The frame for the picture for page 2 are as follows:
Base of hat-3, 3 1/4, 3 1/2
Base of rocket- 2 3/4, 2 7/8, 3

Btw-The wagon was cut at 2 3/4
