America is the Land of the Free, because of the
brave. Veteran’s Day celebrates and acknowledges
the service of all United States Military Veterans.
Today we honor the brave men and women
who have served in the American Military. With
great respect, and a heart full of pride, we say a
great big THANK YOU to those who have served.
Please hop with us as we pay homage to the
people who help keep America the Land of the Free.
You should of come from my friend Marji's blog. If
not then you need to start at the beginning at
Melissa's blog. You wouldn't want to miss out of
some fantastic projects for today.
For todays Hop I decided to make a really simple
flag card. It might not look simple but, it is really
easy to put together.
I started off with a 4 1/4 X 5 1/2 blue card. You can
make your own card bases really easy by simply
cutting a 8 1/2 X 11 piece of card stock in half.
Then you will have 2 card bases. The red and white
stripes started off at 3/4 X 12. Then I punched them
with a Martha Stewart paper punch. After
punching all 12 I cut them down to 5 1/4. When
that is done you just layer them one on top of the
others. Easy? Right.
The blue corner is 2 X 2 1/2. The stars are a really
old paper punch I had. But, you could use any star
shape. Mine are 3/4 inches. I added some $1.00
bling I bought at JoAnns. I used my favorite white
pen to add "stitching"around the blue corner.
I hope you enjoyed my flag card for todays hop.
You should now hop on over to my friend Robin
I know she will have a fantastic project
for todays hop.
