If you want to join in with the 4th July celebrations we have two fun challenges this week...
After rummaging through my papers for some time I finally decided on these pretty papers by Creative Imaginations...they do have a little bit of green in them but not too much...I think I might just pass the challenge :)

Colouring Medium: Memento Ink & Copic Sketch markers.

Gills Sketch
Well I had to put my thinking cap on for this challenge as I don't own any 4th July stamps... I only had a stamp of the US flag that was part of a set by The Greeting Farm....so I thought I would adapt this Edwin image...he was originally holding a butterfly net and so for fun I have replaced it with the US flag
The image was coloured with Copics and the papers are a digi download and the stars are from a mixed bag of table confetti that I got on a recent shopping trip to Hobbicrafts along with the ribbon.
Recipe
Stamps: 'Chasing Edwin' by Magnolia and the US flag came from the 'Hero' set by The Greeting Farm.
Colouring medium: Memento Ink & Copic Sketch Markers.
Sentiment: Computer generated.
Papers: All digi downloads from Sweet Shoppe Designs.
Ribbon & Stars: from Hobbicrafts
Must dash off to the supermarket now as the cupboards are empty and Jack is making hungry noises! lol
