4th of July card

Lainey wanted to help me make a card and there isn't much she can help me do except tape things and take the pictures. I showed her how the embossing powder heats up and she thought that was pretty cool. Speedy the cat's challenge was to make your own background paper so we used a misc flag stamp and colored that in with stampin up markers. Then we used gold EP on the chipboard star and fireworks, we tried to follow the sketch for the Stamping 411 challenge also. We also distressed the flag with walnut distress ink.
