Today the USA celebrates its independence from Great Britain, a time for family, friends, food (mainly BBQ’d) and the odd foaming peevo! Normally it would be a hot sunny July day here in North Texas, however we were woken up by huge thunderstorms and rain at about 5:30 this morning. It is a little after 10am now, although the rain has stopped it is still very overcast and most ‘unlovely’…… Typical bank holiday weather in my native UK in fact!

Celebrate Today Week ~ # 6 Christmas Cards
Welcome to Card # 6 using the Celebrate Today Stamp Set, which takes a Christmas theme.
I know, I know – we are not even half-way thru September and here I am showing Christmas cards!!! but Christmas ‘stuff’ has been in the craft stores for several months now and I am sure the next 3 months will fly by so I don’t think it is too soon to be thinking about getting a head start on the Christmas cards.

Celebrate Today Week ~ # 5, Shaker Card
Today’s card using the ‘Celebrate Today’ Stamp Set is a shaker card, I have not done one of these before but I thought the balloon theme lent itself to a shaker card. I trawled the internet for some inspiration to find out how to do this and came across a video which I have linked further down this post.

Celebrate Today Week ~ # 4 Wedding card with Video
Welcome to card #4 of my week with the ‘Celebrate Today’ stamp set When looking at all the pieces in this set it came a surprise to me to see ‘wedding’ as one of the greetings – had not really associated balloons and weddings before – so I took it as a personal challenge!
There is also a video for this one……………….!!!!!!!!!!

Celebrate Today Week ~ # 3
Today’s card using the ‘Celebrate Today’ Stamp Set has bright primary colors which I think would work very well for a younger member of the family.
It features window sheet and is based on a card by Connie Stewart of Simply Simple Stamping.

Celebrate Today ~ #1
The Celebrate Today Stamp Set was introduced in the 2015 Occasion catalog back in January – and it was included in the 2015 – 2016 Annual Catalog that came out in June. I was looking for inspiration for a birthday card and picked up the set….. just to see what ‘vibes’ it would give me………. although the set has a balloon theme it also has a bunch of greetings that would celebrate most life experience occasion…… birthday, baby, wedding and graduation.
While I made the birthday card – which I will share, I also thought it would be a great opportunity to create a week of cards using this set……. so here is #1……..
