American Celebration Blog Hop....

July snuck up on me!!!  I had grand intentions of getting the artwork done BEFORE the wedding so I wouldn't have to be in my scrapbook room on my "honeymoon"...and by that I mean the small window of time with no kids...lol. 

EDITED TO ADD: I've finally been able to get in my scrapbook room and instead of making 80+ "Thank You Cards", I decided to do this card using July's SOTM, American Celebration!!!  I totally cased the idea from one of my MAJOR sources of inspiration....Betsy Veldman (Paper, Scissors and SuperHeroes)...I saw the card a week or so ago and knew immediately that I was going to transform her PaperTrey Ink card into an all CTMH card!!!  I think it went pretty well...
