Sweet Land of Liberty

Hello and Happy 4th of July to you and yours! For my card today I decided to make a patriotic card. I used the stars from the Independence Day set from PinkByDesign to make my own patterned paper.  I used the Sweet Summer stamp set from PinkByDesign to make my red, white, and blue sno cone. I LOVE how my sno cone turned out!!! I white heat embossed the "cone" part on black cardstock.
To make my sno cone look real, I put a generous amount of Rock Candy Stickles on and let it dry over night. It looks even cooler in real life! The sentiment is from the Red, White, & Blue set also from PinkByDesign. I thought it was quite fitting for my patriotic sno cone! ;)

I hope you have a FABULOUS FOURTH!!!!

God Bless America!
♥ Nikki ♥
