Simon Says...Sporty and/or Patriotic Challenge

I created this card to enter in the Simon Says Sporty and/or Patriotic challenge.  I went with the Patriotic theme. My nephew's birthday is in July and I thought this would be a good birthday card for him. I used a Cuttlebug embossing folder for the background and some Basic Grey paper from the Life of the Party 6x6 pack. I also used the Star Nestabilities dies. Love them! The greeting is from the Hero Arts Wish Big clear stamp set.


Wish me BIG luck!  Ha! :)
