DAD

Today is Memorial Day.  It's a time to remember those who served our country.  One person who did serve our country during the Korea Conflict was my dad.  While he didn't see combat, he was drafted and served his country.  Dad passed away in 1991, but he will forever be in my heart.  Today's card is in honor of my dad.

For this card I used the set from Deedee's Digi's called "Not A Tie".  The set is the featured Set of the Month and can be purchased for $1.25 in the store.  If you purchase the set and enter the monthly challenge (ending June 1st), you will get the next months set of the month for FREE!

I colored the image with Spectrum Noir markers and then just used some scraps of paper for layering.  The inside sentiment is also part of the set:

Here is the whole set:


Isn't it cute?  And what a deal - outline images, pre-colored images, white filled layering images and sentiments!  WOW!!!

I'm entering this card into the following challenges:

Thanks for stopping by today.  And if you or your family served our country - THANK YOU!  God bless!!!!
