We're celebrating Independence Day on Thursday, so I thought I'd make this thank you card fit the upcoming holiday and a whole bunch of current challenges. It will be perfect for our 4th of July picnic hostess.
It's a very simple card, without a lot of bumps and bulges, so it fits easily in a regular A2 envelope and qualifies for the current Cards in Envy Sketch #6 Challenge. Here's the sketch they provided:
