Celebrating Creativity - Day 4

Today is 4th of July and I'm spending it with the family and taking a lot of pictures and hoping no one catches our house on fire with a stray firework! 

I wanted to do a final post on the cards in the Tin of Cards and then I will start posting the other projects I made with the stamp set. 

First, the stamp set you can get for this project is awesome.   It's $17.00 and has everything you need for most occasions!  I love the size of the scripted sayings and I really like the doodle stamps in this set to add just a little something special to your stamped projects!

Today's card is very simple.  I changed it from the instructions by leaving off the gold glitter heart - just not my style - but I also needed some cards for the boys and men in my life and this seemed a little more masculine without the heart.  I made all four using the Happy Birthday and attached with dimensionals, though glue dots would make it flatter for mailing.

This is another project where I stamped with Stazon but could be done with Tuxedo Black Memento ink. 

As stated the past few days, this kit is on backorder until mid-July but it's a great purchase for either a gift or for yourself.  You can make cards fitting any occasion with it and you can use the stamp set to make other cards as you'll see this weekend.
