July 4th Parade Layout

Well, hello there.....yes, I know I have been a stranger and I think that my craft supplies have taken it the hardest because they feel a bit neglected.  Well, they shouldn't anymore because I was able to get into my craft room this weekend and create something!!  And, it felt great!!

I created this fun layout for The Twinery blog - stitching with their solid bakers twine.  Check it out!

This is a layout of my kiddos at the local 4th of July parade....yes, yes, I know that the photos are a few years old, but hey, I was so into the moment the last time the parade was in town that I {gasp} forgot to take pictures.  Hopefully I won't forget this year.  I used my solid bakers twine on this layout for stitching around the star with the Solid Maraschino and also for the fireworks up in the upper right corner in Solid Midnight Blue and Solid Natural bakers twine.  Here is a closer look......

I used my Cricut for the die cut stars and the lettering.  This year we will have a fun packed day with parades, games, wagon rides, BBQ and fireworks.  How will you be celebrating the day?

Hugs,
Amy
