We are so excited to participate in the Memorial Day Weekend Blog Hop! Our dear friend and special customer Jane Emerson was a faithful contributor to Operation Write Home. We dedicate today's post to her memory! We hope to encourage others to continue her good work.
There is a lovely post about Jane on the OWH blog, you can see it

Our Design Team has made cards to thank our service men and women for their sacrifice and commitment to our freedom. We will be sending these along with cards from our customers for AnyHero.

"A thank you for our troops. No words can ever express our gratitude for your sacrifice."
Paper: Authentique Ink: Distress Walnut Stain Banner Die: Die-namics Rosette: Sizzix
"Your dedication to protecting our country is a gift we can sometimes take for granted.
Know that there are people who are praying for you and thinking of you always."
Here's a thank you card I made using OWH Sketch #152.
Kraft, white, red & blue paper. Lawn Fawn sets Many Thanks and Summertime Charm.
Memento inks for the sentiment and white pigment ink. Lawn Fawn Lawn Cuts for the scalloped circle.
"Our country is as great as it is because of our dedicated military who put their lives on hold in the name of Freedom. I can't thank you or your families enough for your sacrifices.
May the Lord bless you all. A million thank yous to you and yours!"
I used HA stamp set year round sentiments CL582 with Unicorn, Versafine black, Cornflower and Navy Mid-Tone ink.
The tape is from my minds eye. The pattern paper is from Authentique Pride and the hemp cord is from Hemptique.
