BORN in the U.S.A.!

Happy Independence Day!
In honor of this wonderfully hot 4th of July holiday, I thought I should showcase just a sampling of hot product that is made in the U.S.A.!   
  

Memory Box

Memory Box dies are made in the USA of durable 100% steel and usable in nearly every machine on the market!

Hero Arts woodblock stamps originate from sustainably managed forests.  They are hand-cut and assembled with love and care in the USA.  Card by Jennifer McGuire!
All of their dies are made with 100% American Steel and are manufactured in the U.S.A.!  These gorgeous cards are by Dawn Woleslagle!



 Plaid is the industry's leading small batch paint manufacturer, producing all USA-made paint in facilities located outside of Atlanta, GA.

Card created by Lorraine Aquilina!  Dies and stamps are made in the U.S.A.  : ) Simon is proud to be American!
Die-Versions are made in the USA from American Super Hardened Tool Steel. They are 100% lead free!


Have a fantastic holiday!  I hope you get to see fireworks!!  : )
