Well I think that the jump to Summer came a little quick for me-and everything seems to be on fire all over the place. No BBQ on the 4th this year. HOT HOT HOT... I am posting a few new cards from my card class (sadly named, card class) I think that the 4th represents the middle of Summer for me-even though I know it isn't. Summer just speeds by and before I know it, I don't have all my Christmas stuff done.
I had fun making this pop up Uncle Sam. He folds up flat for easy sending. I paper pieced him from an idea in a painting book. I love to paper piece, for me it is relaxing to cut out and glue. I embossed his beard and mustache to give him some extra dimension and added the stars to the front. I am loving this fun fold card, so I know you will see more of them!
Here is to the cranky ladies that are so fun to stamp and imagine what they are saying. I will call her Gladys and I imagined that she was sunning herself by the pool and thinking about key lime pie...
Adorable cards, Suzanne! Love Uncle Sam, so bright, so crisp, so fun! And, so patriotic! Gladys is pretty darn cute, too!
