Sweet Sketch Wednesday109 & Meljens Designs

Here we are in July...can you believe the year is half over.  I sure hope you all had a wonderful 4th of July. We are so grateful for the freedoms that we enjoy.  I spent the evening with my family.  My sister-in-law and brother-in-law have an amazing view of the fire works that are on display at one of our public parks on the 4th of July. We watch them right from their balcony.  We always have a BBQ with our families and then watch the fire works together.  It is very fun, safe way to celebrate the 4th.  I look forward to it every year.

Welcome to my blog. I hope you will stay awhile and enjoy the cards that I have created for our challenge this week over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday. Our Design team has some super cute cards to share with you this week.  You won't to miss them. I hope you will stop by their blogs and leave them a comment.
