Thankful to Live in Freedom


Happy Independence Day, America!

I used Creative Scrappers sketch #110, and patterned papers from Top Shelf's June Kit #2, Fancy Pants. The wavey flag was made with a Creative Memories curvy trimmer. The large star is cut with Sizzix, and scored and folded for dimension. "FREE" is from a Jenni Bowlin Bingo card. The red star felt strip is Queen & Co.'s. The corner pieces are Scenic Route, and I'm unsure of the manufacturer for the stickers, bling and brads. The base is Basic Grey; and finally, the red, white and blue cardstocks are Creative Memories.

Entering this into Stampin' Sisters in Christ Challenge #46 - 2 Chronicles 7:14 I feel the same concerns as Chris commented with the challenge. Charles Stanley is hosting a 140 days of prayer for America.

And Dr. Youssef is leading a praying for our nation from July 4, 2010 to November 2, 2010, as well. Will you consider praying for our nation? Of course, it would also be a blessing to pray for freedom in general and all the nations and their citizens.

Have a very blessed day!!
