For my project today, I created a card for my Dad.  Dad served in the Naval Reserves and is very proud of his service to this great country.  With Veteran's Day coming up, I wanted to send Dad a card to let him know how proud I am of him and his committment to this country.  I also made and sent cards to both my boys who served in the Army. 

For this card, I used the Stand and Salute Cartridge - some brads from Paperwishes and some stickers from my scrapbox.  I used pop-dots to make some elements stand out.  Thanks so much for taking a peek. 

I have my own special blog candy to everyone who takes a peek today.  I'm offering $10 off My Memories Digital Software - and another $10 coupon to the Mymemories.com store.  All you have to do is enter the code STMMMS4552 at http://www.mymemories.com/ to get this discount. Or you can click on the link on the left side of my blog! (a $20 gift for you).  There are plenty of freebies and lots of inspiration - please check it out!
