Stars And Stripes

Hello My Friends,

 Today I would like to show you a 4th of July card I made using my Cameo Silhouette.  I saw this silhouette of Betsy Ross in the Silhouette Store and had to have her.  

I love the story of Betsy Ross sewing away on the first American flag while George Washington waited impatiently for it to be finished.

 Recipe for card
Silhouette of Betsy Ross from Silhouette Store
Cameo Silhouette Machine
Paper - Bazzill
Punch - Stampin' Up 2 3/8"
Sentiment from stash
Ribbon - 3GirlJam- Sterling
