I just LOVE this Mystery Box. I just wish I had more time to create with it before 4th of July. Especially for our 250th Birthday. The cards are all so lovely. The border on Sabrina’s 2nd card would make a wonderful border on a scrapbook page.
Thank you, Anna, for making this Patriotic Kit for our 250th Birthday. God bless America!
Happy Crafting!
