I’ve always been a big fan of the rustic Americana look. Big Fan. Anything weathered red, white and blue has me at Hello. The more weathered and distressed, the better. When I was looking through the Americana collection from Pebbles Inc, I instantly knew I wanted to display my love of the rustic red, white and blue by creating a Patriotic Memory Tray to Celebrate America for the 4th of July.

Patriotic Memory Tray
I just love how the Americana collection mixture of rustic and traditional embellishments is perfect to use for all of your 4th of July decorations.
Typically people decorate Memory Trays with photos. I decided to skip the photos this time and embellish the tray with various Pebbles Americana stickers, patterned papers, card stock die shapes, pinwheels, glitter stars and journaling cards. The embellis in this collection really are awesome!
Just love how this Patriotic Memory Tray was such a simple addition to my rustic 4th of July decor this year!

May 26, 2014 at 6:53 pmSuch a beautiful memory tray. Love how festive it is and how you used those straws as a background. I love the trendy straws but I never buy them because I don’t see myself using enough of them. Great Job

Just saw tray yesterday when I was organizing things was putting away, time to get it back out. So glad I saw your project, love working with paper and embellishments. Fun to go thru all my papers to find just the right patterns. Enjoy rest of week
