Wishing my son, Joe and bonus daughter, Niki a very HAPPY sixth wedding anniversary today!
I was thinking about Memorial Day rapidly approaching and it made me think of all the wonderful blessings in our lives. I am so thankful for all the courageous men and women that gave their lives in order for us to live in America! This card is in honor of everyone that has served or is serving our country. My son is in the Coast Guard Reserves and I am proud of his service! God Bless America!
This fabulous sketch from Seize the Sketch is perfect for my card. The Design Team rocked the samples and Lee Ann and Rose must have been thinking a lot like me when they created their cards. That is the greatest part of card making--how it can be changed in so many way! I hope you enjoy my card today!

DeleteFantastic card, Claire! Yes, we must have all been on the same wavelength, or channeling our inner stars, or something! :) Love your use of all of those stars and that is one of my all time favorite sentiments from SU! So sorry that it has retired. Thanks so much for sharing with us at Seize the Sketch!
