Happy 4th of July and freebie alerts

Happy 4th of July everyone!  Sandy (SandyPie) here to wish you all a safe and fun Fourth from Melly and all of her CT.

Speaking of the Fourth, have you seen Melly’s new kit “Rugged Americana”?  If not, here ya go and if you have, isn’t it a beaut?  (But I’m not biased at all. ;) )

Ode to the red, white and blue! A grungy, patriotic kit full of tattered elements and worn papers.

By dawn’s early light are those worn edge papers I see?!? {swoon}

And some lovely word bits to add emphasis to your layouts and spice up your journaling.
And check out the Rugged Alpha included with kit!

Hold onto your sparklers ladies, there’s an add-on alpha that will surely please everyone, criss cross my patriotic heart.Isn’t this a  great kit?  Know what else is great?  Our CT, of course, and they have been cracking out some fab layouts with this kit!

Melly is hosting this month’s Cover Tunes Challenge at DSDI.  Here’s her take on the layout, come on over and show us what you can do.

Won’t you stop by and say hi to Melly and join in on the fun we’re having at DSDI.

And now for the freebies I promised:

And that’s all I have for you today.  And again wishes from all of us that you have a fun and safe holiday weekend!!  We’ll see you again soon!

And here are mine, I just love the retro feel of this kit.

I whipped up a hybrid bag, I thought it would make a great holder for a small album of memories of summer vacations long ago.

Till next time, thank you, and have a great weekend!
