Veteran's Day Card for Paper House Productions

I'm honored to share this Veteran's Day card for Paper House Productions.  Being raised as an "Army Brat",  I'm well familiar with the military life.  Men and women in my family, including my ancestors have served in the military, and some, in various wars.  As Americans, we have a duty to respect and honor those who serve to protect our country, values and freedom.

I used the Army Memory Crafting Kit to create this card, using elements that would be universal for other branches of the military, as well.  Paper House has paper kits for all branches of the armed forces.





For the alpha stickers that I used to spell "Freedom Isn't Free", I used the stickers from the Lake Life paper kit, along with the woodgrain paper.  






My process for this card was to create a photo frame with a picture of a universal soldier image  Notice the scoring on the inside corners of my card?  I applied those score marks for a frame effect, sanding the score marks with a nail file, to make it appear more prominent.   Black cardstock frames my elements and is displayed on a top fold, scored card using Neenah Solar White cardstock.  All adhesives are from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.


I hope you will find time to honor a veteran this week.  Sit down with one and ask questions...listen to their story.  You just might enjoy the history lesson.
