Here's a good 'ol Canadian girl's take on red, white, and blue. Today we're going tea partying to Oak Brook to see Becky who's had a tough go of it but is on the road to recovery. I used Sissix die cuts for this card and a star EB folder for the white panel. You have to look hard to see it but between the red and the blue banners is a white one barely visible in the photograph.

Wow! This is amazing both inside & out! I think us Canadians pulled off this Americana theme quite nicely & I agree with you that Americans celebrate in a much better & more colorful way than us northerners.
