The theme at Sentimental Sundays this week is Patriotic! If you're not in the US, you can still play along of course--just use the colors of your own nation's flag!
For my card I tried to incorporate all kinds of iconic 4th of July elements. The red gingham ribbon reminds me of a picnic tablecloth. The splash of stemmed pearls reminds me of a firework, and then there's the star of course, with patriotic verse on it, and tricolor ribbons...
