Independence Day- Banners and Tags... Oh My!   Tuesday, June 19, 2012
by Candy Rosenberg   Post Type: Mixed Media

Independence Day, commonly known as the Fourth of July, is a federal holiday in the United States commemorating the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, declaring independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain. Independence Day is commonly associated with fireworks, parades, barbecues, carnivals, fairs, picnics, concerts, baseball games, family reunions, and political speeches and ceremonies, in addition to various other public and private events celebrating the history, government, and traditions of the United States. Independence Day is the national day of the United States.

I am getting ready for Fourth of July with a layout that has lots of texture and dimension to commemorate the upcoming holiday and would like to show you how to make it.  Beware… most of my projects are dimensional and often do not fit in a traditional scrapbook, so feel free to take away the chunky part of this layout so that it will fit in your scrapbook if desire.  Here is a view of the finished layout and enjoy the video tutorial.

Is it really that time of year again? I just can’t believe it!! The official kick off to summer is upon us, and I am planning my annual cook out, with friends and now family!! Last year, my mom joined us for the long weekend from Ohio. This year, my exciting new family member joining us, is my brother-in-law who has recently relocated to Phoenix, and I now have him here every day! I thought I was blessed last year... this year... it's like a dream come true for me!
