for my Operation Write Home Memorial Day blog hop post, please scroll down or click here. :)
Today is a new challenge over at Paper Makeup Stamps, but also a very important day here in the States - Memorial Day. while many people first think of barbeques and cookouts, we would be remiss to let this day go by without a thought for the many people who have served and are currently serving in the military. You might not agree with the politics, that is not what this is about. this is about the PEOPLE who are putting their lives on the line, enduring things we here at home can't possibly fathom, so that we can enjoy freedoms put forth in our Constitution. We are so very blessed, and I am thankful for these generous, brave people.
We have an 'anything goes' challenge at Paper Makeup Stamps this week. yep, you can make any kind of paper craft you would like, as long as it has a digital image on it somewhere. be sure to stop by the blog to see the great projects created by the rest of the team! :)
I used the ribbon from the Oliver Rock Star set. the sentiment is also Paper Makeup, but I believe it was a free one given out a while back. stars on main image are all covered in stickles. Paper and sticker elements are from the Authentique Glory collection. I have told you how much I love this collection! :) star die cut is from MFT, main image die is Spellbinders, and wood veneer stars are Studio Calico. a little yellow ticket, button, and baker's twine complete the card. simple, but that is how I wanted it. :)
Enjoy the day with your friends and loved ones gathered close! smile, because there is something in every day to smile about! joy is all around us, dear friends! :)
love to you! Jennifer
