Celebrate Freedom

Yesterday I went with my sister Jenni and her family to a large outdoor concert. We didn't hear much of the actual bands performing because it was very family friendly outside the arena and we spent a lot of time walking around and letting BittyBit try out all of the bounce houses and slides in the kid area. It was so incredibly hot outside. We had spf 50 sunscreen slathered all over us (Jenni even had spf 70) and we kept having to re-apply it because we were starting to burn. There is nothing like the vicious Texas sun to beat you into submission.

Independence Day is one of my favorite holidays. I thought it was only fitting that I create a kit for the 4th of July. There are only a few items that are specific to the holiday. Most of the rest of it is neutral enough to use for any occasion.
You can download the papers here, and the elements here. *Sorry, this freebie is no longer available for download. You may now visit my blog store to purchase this kit.*

My friend Shalene of Jordan's Boutique designed this fabulous desktop calendar to coincide with the release of my kit. She is amazingly crafty and does all kinds of hybrid work, including cards and invitations to events. Check out Shalene's blog to snag the desktop wallpaper, and remember to leave some love if you do.

Wow we just got back from watching our second round of fireworks this year. They were great and hopefully a couple of my pics came out good. This kit is gorgeous, so different, and patriotic, and fun. Thanks so much. Patty
