Hi creative and crafty friends! Happy Friday and happy 4th of July weekend! Today is my day up on The Greetery Blog. Happy Independence Day! I hope your Summer is going great so far. America 250 is very exciting, so I had to make another patriotic card. I feel like The Greetery has some of the most classy and beautiful patriotic products out there – don’t you? For my project I used lots of Greetery patriotic goodies and that big beautiful pie die!
My finished card is an A2 Cream card base. I layered red/cream gingham paper and then I layered the Grand Finale Die. I let the gingham show through that layer and inked it up with Antique Linen Distress Ink. Next I die cut out all the pieces for the flag (Wave the Flag dies), the pie (To Pie For dies), and the sentiment and stars.
I assembled the Blueberry pie (almost as American as Apple Pie!) and coated it with some sugary glitter. To make it look like pie crust I inked the cream cardstock with Linen Distress Ink. I assembled the flag and splattered it with gold ink.

I gold heat embossed the sentiment from the Land Of Liberty stamp set and die cut it out with the matching dies. I added the word happy on a small banner. The stars were die cut using the Small Rustic Stars dies with gold glitter paper. I put everything together on the card front and used foam squares for some of the elements to pop up off the card. I added blue gems for a bit more sparkle.
