are my playground sites this morning. As most of you know, my husband is battling cancer from Agent Orange. So "my cause" is for the people who serve in any branch, anywhere in the world, to let them know we are thinking of them. My friend, LeAnne, sent me some patterned paper and I have used a smidgeon of it today.
I used Real Red for my card base. I sponged a piece of Whisper White with Blueberry Bushel and used the same ink to stamp the sentiment from Loyal & True.
I punched 1 1/4" squares with a retired SU whale punch (that's old!). The DSP is by Our Daily Bread. The middle square is SU Blueberry Bushel.
The sentiment from Climbing Orchid is stamped in Blueberry Bushel on a scrap of Whisper White and adhered to a piece of Blueberry Bushel card stock. The Air Force symbol is a die cut, listed below.
The inside is self-explanatory, I hope.
Thank you so much for stopping by and remember our Veterans, please.

This is such a great card, my brother also had cancer likely linked to Agent Orange. My heart goes out to you as you battle with him against it. Thanks so much for creating with us this week at Tuesday Morning Sketches!

ReplyDeleteThanks, Amy.
DeleteReally great card! I feel the same way toward our military, but don't do anything for them. Shame on me. You are an inspiration to prompt me to get with the program.
ReplyDeleteYou are busy doing other worthwhile things. I'll create for you :-)
DeleteYour card is fantastic with the red, white, and blue colors and patterns, and I like the reason you made it. I miss making cards for OWH and wish they were still sending them to our troops today. Sorry your husband has such a battle on his hands, but your support will give him wings. Thanks for playing along with the Tuesday Morning Sketch challenge and good luck!
ReplyDeleteI wish OWH was still doing what they did too. Thanks for your nice comment.
DeleteWhat a fantastic card. I am honored that you chose my sketch for such a worthy cause. My heart and prayers go out to your husband. Thank you for joining us at Tuesday Morning Sketches.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Melissa. It was a neat sketch and thanks for your thoughts and prayers.
DeleteWhat a wonderful card and cause! So sorry to hear of your husband's battle!
