What fun it was to have so many Patriotic Projects from our readers! I was able to CASE a couple of them for my own Fourth of July cards – even the stamp featuring the Canadian Maple Leaf gave me ideas for my own cards! I hope you had as much fun with this as all of us on the Design Team did in looking through the entries.
Of course, we consider all of those who enter our challenges winners because they're your projects and they're so creative! But we do enjoy the challenge of looking through them all and deciding which are our favorites. So here are our Top 3 for the Patriotic Projects challenge!
And ladies, don't forget to pick up your Top 3 Blog Code just above the "Archives" list on the left!

Libby Fens. Libby's card, with the traditional patriotic bunting has such a unique feel to it, especially with the doily used to trim the rosette. We can just see it on porches in many communities across the USA. Beautiful!
Melissa Davies. This is just a great box with lots of texture. We especially like the coordinating paper bow on the top. So elegant!

Mary Davidson. Speaking of boxes, we loved that Mary was thinking outside of the box using a non-patriotic themed stamp to create a perfect image for the patriotic theme. We just loved the non-traditional use of this stamp set. What fun!
