Sassy Cheryl's Challenge--Celebrate the Red White and Blue

It's Tuesday and time for the Sassy Cheryl's Challenge, Celebrate the Red,White and Blue hosted by the fabulous Peggy.  My card as usual has a bit of a twist, you are shocked I know. Noah and his Bear Patches will explain: 

My two oldest grandsons never really liked the fireworks as they were just too loud. Noah with his bear just kind of brings back those memories of the days when they would come over to watch the fireworks display from our front yard, since we live 4 blocks from the Country club that has a wonderful fireworks display and we can set our lawn chairs in the yard and see the whole thing start to finish...works for me.   The boys would always sit in the house and watch TV during the display, but that is okay, they now sit out with us but they sometimes still wear ear plugs.

Celebrating is all about the Holiday, the fun, picnics, fireworks, family and maybe even some watermelon :) 

The DT has some wonderful creations to show you and Sassy Cheryl has some awesome images including Bella to help you celebrate so go on over to the store and grab an image and play in the Challenge this week, we would love to have you. Cheryl has a ton of images in the Dollar bin so check them out too.

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful creative day.
