Memorial Day Weekend - so important for us to remember those who have served and those still serving in the military. Operation Write Home will have it's annual Memorial Weekend Bloghop beginning Saturday morning. I will be one of the MANY who will be participating. Sure hope you will join us for this fun, inspiring weekend. Lots of eye candy. Speaking of candy - I will be giving away some blog candy next week so make sure you are a follower so you will get the details and a chance to win.
Now on to a Patriotic card I made. It is just one of the many I have made this week while preparing for the bloghop this coming weekend.
I used the sketch at
Our Daily Bread Designs, making one card with a Navy base and one with Red. These will go in the box to be sent to OWH to thank our heroes for their service.
I stitched the striped ribon. The stars are cut out with a Verve die. The words are cut out with my Silhouette. The flag BG stamp is ODBD, inked with Stampin Up Real Red and Night of Navy.
Here is the sketch:
