Ok, here's my layout using this great file. I didn't take this picture, I think it was published in the Pierre paper and was circulated by email in 2007. Since I didn't have any current 4th of July pictures, I thought of this one, and it's perfect. I used some Stickles on the firecracker, and some red jewels. Next year for sure I'm going to be there!

Glad you both decided to join.


Susan, I will try to come up with some canadian based files.. If you have ideas or need something please let me know.. I have relatives there I have never met so I can do some research to see what types of files I can come up with.

well, I thought this might be an issue as I am Australian and silly me didn't really notice that the files were American themed! However, fortunately for me, I have the besest online friend that just happens to be American LOL

so here is mine! Thanks for the freebie files :)

My creation using this file. I took it in a different direction to show that it doesn't have to be used for just patriotic holidays.


Hope you like..

I took what I had left over, and created 6 more 4th/July pages. No pics yet, but figured I could post some from the past ('to-do')-- and have some scrapping some what caught up! I guess I have 'OSW' on my brain! LOL!!


LOL! It's late or early, or whatever, but the pages are the same size, I promise! Ha!

[aussie_caz]

gorgeous pages Melody, well done!
