God Bless America!

Happy Sunday Friends! Today's card is for this week's Blogger's Challenge...Stars. (Please click here to go to Lisa's Blog for more details and the link to play along.) We could interpret the theme however we wanted. I held off until today to post because today marks the 10th anniversary of the terrorist attacks here in the United States. I had hoped to write something eloquent about my feelings on that day, but I still fill up with tears each time I think about it. All of the memories and the emotions of that fateful day fill my heart whenever it is even mentioned. So on that thought, here is my very simple card for the challenge. I used cream and navy card stock, and some red patterned paper from Memory Box. The stars were made with Die-namics from My Favorite Things, and the sentiment was made on my computer. The button is from Papertrey Ink and I finished it off with some Divine Twine from The Cat's Pajamas. My family and I made a few more of these cards today so that we can send them to our soldiers to express our gratitude for all that they do. Thank you for stopping by today. I wish you all a beautiful day...Toodles!

This is just wonderful and a beautiful way to pay tribute to those who lost so much during that very "dark time" in our countries history. I love your design.
