I LOVE that 4th of July card - so creative! I can't wait to try it!
Holley,
I feel like I am looking at the fireworks show with your card. It is so great.
These cards are just adorable!
Both are beautiful so much detail! But I think the Bee one is my fave! Happy 4th of July!
Beautiful! I love them both!
love the fourth of July card...
I can't choose. They are both fabulous!
WOW! These are both beautiful. The 4th of July card is truly a work of art. Amazing dimension to it.
Holley your cards are fabulous! I really like the stair step card, I made my first one yesterday and wow, it was a real challenge! Have a wonderful holiday weekend my friend!
It's a close call, but I think I like the 1st card the best. The bees are just too dang cute!
They are both awesome cards!! If I have to choose I would say the bee card I love the way you added the texture to the beehive and those bees are way too cute. You do a great job on all your projects.
I love the 3D effect of the Celebrate America card. I wish I knew how you did that!
Hi Holley! Wow, looks like I found another blog to follow!! What amazing work, can't wait to see what else you have going on here! OK, I have a soft spot for the bee card -- think the little bees are adorable and I love the texture you added to the hive!!
They are both gorgeous as always! But I'm going with the circle card. The shape is fun and different.
A tough decision but my fave is the 4th of July card! It explodes off the paper like a fireworks display! Happy 4th!
I really like both cards. But I guess those cute little bees would win for me. Great job with both!
I like both cards. This is a tough choice, but I think I'm going to go with the bees -- I love this set and your card is really cute.
Awesome cards! both are stunning. When I saw the bee card I instantly thought of a hero picking that out for a loved one at home and "beeing" excited to send it and then I can picture the loved one "being abuzz" about receiving it. - Andrea M.
Wow I'm not sure which....maybe the bees because it's round? Oh but the patriotic one is so cute too! Agh!
OMG Holley talk about a hard choice. Your cards are awesome. How did you do the detail on the bee card? My favorite is the 3d 4th of July card. I just love all the color and excitement of the card. I especially loved your video and blog candy.
Fabulous cards! Thanks for sharing!
Your fireworks card is fantastic!
Those are great cards, and thanks for putting the info on how you made them.
I love your cards. They are both great. I think out of the two I would say I like the circle card better. TFS.
Aack! This is too hard! I love both of them! And I really love cards that have a different shape or size to them. Both of them fit that category too. Dang. . . Ok. . . I will choose the bees, because they are just too darned cute. :) Thanks for sharing both!
Decisions, decisions!! Both cards are awesome Holley but if I could only pick one it would be the bees. It just makes me smile.
Of course they're both great cards, but I'm partial to stars, so I'll have to say the July 4th card is my favorite! Love the unique easel design! Have a great 4th of July!
I love the America card. The colors work so well together and everything just pops on it.
I especially like the folded card because I am such a klutz that I have the utmost respect for anyone who can do them well.. which you definitely can! Thanks for the video! Both cards are cheerful and perfect for the 4th!
It's really hard to pick a favorite between the two. Each have their own unique style...sorry, guess I failed your request. I think both cards are wonderful!
Both cards are awsome but I think I pick the 4th of July card. I do love them both...beautiful!
As always, your cards are fabulous making it so hard to choose! I pick the 4th of July card for today, and the Cute "honey" card for tomorrow! Hehe!
Wow! Amazing cards. I love the Honey card. It is so playful and sweet. (ok, groan a little, lol)
I like both of them, but I really like the stars on the easel card! Not to mention that it looks like a fireworks display, all bright and cheerful!

Hi Holley! Great cards again! I love both cards, but the July 4th card really catches my eye with all of the bold colors and attention to all of the details! What a beauty! Thanks for the blog candy offer...it's yummy!
Love both of your cards!! Awesome circle card and lots of detail on the 4th of July card!! Happy Independence Day!! TFS
Both cards are super cute! but I love the bees best. they are super fun and I am big on shaped cards :)
Love both cards - but if I have to choose one, it would be the Star Easel card - for Independence Day ... and then the "just buzzin' by" card for later. Thanx for sharing, God Bless and Happy 4th of July to you!
I love both cards but if I have to pick I'll have to go with the Celebrate America. Beautiful Card.
I really like the circle w/ bees. It's cute & different.

I really like the bees, but to me nothing tops some awesome stars - TFS they are both great!
I love both cards!! There are awesome!! Have a great weekend. Happy 4th of July.

Wow! What a lovely elaborate patriotic birthday card you made! Whoever gets it will be sooooo lucky. :)
Love the celebrate America card. Very patriotic.
Both cards are wonderful, but my favorite is the easel....fits the 4th of July to a T.
Thanks for sharing all the details too.
Cute cards!! I'm a sucker for a good easel card thought, lol! Thanks for participating!!
they are awesome cards Holly, but I like the easel card the best!
Happy Independence Day!
Both cards are adorable - but being from Utah I'm partial to the adorable bee card!! (The bee hive is a symbol of Utah).
Wow nice cards. I love them all.
It's too hard to pick, but if you force me I'll go with the bee's. They are both so darn cute.
The Red,White&Blue is my favorite. It is AWESOME!!! TFS.
Super cards! Hope you have a wonderful weekend!
So cute! I love that easel card - especially that firecracker DP!
Both of your cards are very cute! My favorite is the circle bee card. I haven't done a circle card before.
Hello, Holley!! I've been eyeing that bee stamp set for ages! You nailed it on both cards! The colors on the America card are awesome. Favorite? The bees!!
your celebrate card is absolutely perfect!
Hi Holley. Awesome job on both cards. While I think the Star card is outstanding and know it took way more time and materials, I am partial to the honey bees - probably because I love it and never did buy the set. Great job. TFS. Oh, and the Avon package you put together is really nice

The bee card is cute but that stars one is just fabulous! LOVE it!!
For me...i love both but the 2nd one was my fave. It looked like fire works and I like the folding!
I love both your cards Holley! (as usual) I have to learn/try to make an easel card.
the fireworks one blows me away...but to me it is too fancy for a card, it would be my CENTERPIECE!!! LOL
Therefore my vote is going to go to that cute bee circle card :)
I hope you and yours enjoy your July 4th weekend :)
Hugs,
Susan
I love them both!!!!!!! For the one I pick I'll go with the Fourth of July because it is SO bright. I LOVE bright cards! But I still think that the bee one is cute, too!:D

Great cards. Love the July 4th card best. TFS!
Happy 4th!
What a dilemma to ask which one I liked best as I like them both but for different reasons. I think I'll have to go with the easel card for all the details you put on the front and back and the tremendous amount of 3D effect to it. Anyone would be delighted to receive either of them.
My favorite is the easel card.
You know, I can't really choose. Both of these cards are absolutely gorgeous, and lots of work went into both of them. Thanks for sharing, now I am off to find a subscribe button.
Awesome cards! thanks for the link, Holley!
Razzle dazzle...I love the stars easel card. Too cute.
The Celebrate America Card is my favorite (love the other one too). I really like how you used the firework paper and the stars on teh top layer. Happy 4th of July!
Thanks for your hard work. Both cards are fantastic - but my favorite is the Happy Birthday USA card! I love how everything pops out at you. Thanks for supporting OWH & our troops : ) Susan
I love America's B-day card...All the colors and how it looks as though fire works are blasting off the card it's awesome!
I love both cards, so choosing just one is hard. I pick the July 4th Card. Love the details.
Both cards are so sweet, but my favorite is the HB USA card!! My husband is a decorated vietnam veteran and I love anything patriotic, and your layering of the stars is so cool! Love it!
Such cute cards! I'm a sucker for easel cards, so I'm going to have to pick the July 4th card as my fave. . .
