I created a card a soldier could send to another hurt soldier or someones family. Those seem to be the hardest cards for people to make and give.
I used Stand & Salute for the medal and Gypsy Wanderings for the heart. I had to change some of the cut lines in my gypsy to create the purple heart medal.
I also used a Pink by Design stamp from "Our Heros", a SU punch, and a star punch for the top of the flag.
I wanted something simple looking but powerful at the same time.
I also used Glossy Accents on the purple heart for the shine
Thanks to all the troops past and present for their service in protecting our Freedom !!!
