Variously known as the Fourth of July and Independence Day, July 4th has been a federal holiday in the United States since 1941, but the tradition of Independence Day celebrations goes back to the 18th century and the American Revolution (1775-83). In June 1776, representatives of the 13 colonies then fighting in the revolutionary struggle weighed a resolution that would declare their independence from Great Britain. On July 2nd, the Continental Congress voted in favor of independence, and two days later its delegates adopted the Declaration of Independence, a historic document drafted by Thomas Jefferson. From 1776 until the present day, July 4th has been celebrated as the birth of American independence, with typical festivities ranging from fireworks, parades and concerts to more casual family gatherings and barbecues. (Courtesy of History.com) You will make 1 sturdy, standard ATC - 2.5 x 3.5. No recent 1s or 3s - 3s must PM me to explain. Must have at least 3 rated “type 3” swaps. I always check profiles on my swaps for those who have not fulfilled their end of the swap on past swaps before I assign partners. I reserve the right to ban, though I don’t like to, if you do not meet the requirements, and if I feel it is necessary. Don't forget on the back of your ATC to put: •Your Username •Date [month/year] •The Swap Name Have fun and happy swapping. |
