Fourth of July cards

That time of the month to send off three cards to my aunts who all live in the Seattle area.  I looked at the Retro Sketches and decided to give it a try...so this is what I came up with:

Card # 1:

                
Really simple card...I die cut the 4 from white card stock, put the blue paper from Bazzill Basic Paper pack behind the number, then I used pure poppy for the base, but stamped a lot of stars all over it with versamark!  the sentiment is from Vintage Picnic.  so simple, so easy!
