I was asked to create a layout using July 4th photos... and here's my layout titled, "Celebrate Independence."

Love these photos from this past July after my family marched in uniform in the July 4th Parade.  My heart was just bursting with pride watching them march!!!

Supplies used:

Paper: DCWV, Colorbok

Sticker Sentiment & Heart

Swirly Bling

Die Cut Border: K&Co.

Flowers

Gems: Home Made

Sketch: page Maps (Aug 2007) 

Swirly bling is "bursting" from the flowers.  I used red, white and blue gems in the flower centers. 

A look at the flowers on the left of the page.  Light blue bling is just below the flowers.

Here's a better look at the right side of my page.  Love the border trim below the flowers.

Here's a closer look at the border trim.

 

A heart was placed in the upper right of the bottom photo.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
