Memorial Day Weekend

Hi there!

We have a long, three day weekend here in the U.S. to honor those heroes who have served in the military and to remember how they gave the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. These brave men and women make our lives safer. They fight for us so we can continue to enjoy our way of life. I am so grateful for their service and sacrifice! 

Here is a card I made in honor of all those who have served.

I used the Simon Says Stamp, Fit To Be Square die and matching stamp set. I'm entering this into the CAS-ual Friday's challenge #102.

 

Take a moment this weekend to reflect on how lucky we are to have these brave men and women keeping us safe.

So glad you stopped by! Enjoy your weekend!

Fun With Simon Says Stamp Products!

Hey everyone!

I've been playing with some fun (new to me) products from Simon Says Stamp! I've got three cards to share. The first two use the April Card Kit, which I was lucky enough to win from a random drawing on Kathy Racoosin's blog! Thank you, Kathy! :) 

All the papers are from the kit - LOVE! And the little roses are from their, Best Mom Ever clear stamp set. The sentiment is from their stamp set called, Happy Everyday which comes in the kit.

This next one is stamped with the same, Happy Everyday set. 

The stripes and tiny triangles are stamps. Thought this would make a good masculine b-day card.

And this last card is stamped using the SSS, Best Mom Ever set. Love these roses so much!!

 I gave this one to a mom friend of mine for Mother's Day.

Before I go, I wanted to say how sad I am for all those living in Oklahoma - so much devastation, sorrow and suffering! Did you know that it is so easy to donate? All you have to do is text the words, "Redcross" to the number, 90999 and it will automatically donate $10.00 to the victims of Oklahoma. The $10.00 will be added to your cell phone bill - doesn't get any easier! Just think if we all did that how much it would help!

That's it for me today. We've got some dreary weather, so a good day to clean the house - - - - nah! I think I'll play some more!

Thanks for stopping by - have a great week! :)
