Here are my cards:



Recipe:
Card #1 was very simple...I used some flag material I had for another project and I love the 3D effect it has so I simply pasted it down with my ATG and then I stamped the sentiment and popped it with dots for each part and layered upon each other. Inside I do have a sentiment thanking our Hero for his sacrifice.

Card #2 I used my ribbon as a embellishment and the stamped "God Bless America" (by Verve) and popped it up with a pop up dot on top of the ribbon and then I stamped three different stars from the same stamp set as the sentiment in blue Ink to make it stand out on the red and then on two of them I put a yellow button on it...to match the middle like a star of its own.

Thanks for stopping by and I do have blog candy! I have stickers to give away....these are wonderful for Scrapping LOs or even for other projects...just make sure you post a comment and give me an email address if you don't I will draw again...I am having problems with people not giving an email and claiming the prize and that is not fair to others who hop. Thanks and I would be honored if you followed me and also take my button if you have a blog of your own. :)

Thanks for stopping by and hope you were inspired and come back to visit me again...
In His Love,
Be Inspired,
Kari
