Hello friends!
It's the Memorial Day holiday here in the USA,
a day here in the USA in which we remember those that gave
the ultimate sacrifice in the military service.
It was an honor growing up in an Air Force family
and this day is one of the few that is very humbling.
Later today, my son and some of his Boy Scout troop mates
will be placing flags on the graves of fallen soliders at a local cemetary.
They'll be flanked by members of the US Marines
who stand as wonderful role models of leadership and duty!
Today I'm up on The Project Bin blog
and I'm showcasing a card using one of my FAVORITE stamp sets from TPB ~
This set is traditionally one we've used for the 4th of July/
USA's Independence Day,
but today, I'm showing another way to use this set :)
I've paired with the My Favorite Things Peek-a-boo striped die
(you've probably seen this one my blog many times!)
and I've used alternating blue and red card stock to push through the slots.
The stamp I used from the set is
America the beautiful ~ masked off to use just the top portion.
Here's a another look:
Wishing you a day of reflection and remembrance :)
I hope if it's a holiday for you,
that you're able to do something wonderful!
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Big hugs, bigger blessings ♥
