I made this card for this weeks Freshly Made Sketches challenge.
My brother-in-law was in the Navy and was on one of the ships during the Vietnam war.
Sadly, he passed away in September 2019 at the age of 70. He was only 9 days away from his 71st birthday.
When I saw the layout design for this weeks challenge, I instantly thought that this kind of card would be perfect with the layout design.
My husband and I both miss Mario. He used to call us every night around the same time every night just to say hi and see how we are doing. And he would come over to visit at least once a week. We miss the phone calls and the visits. I was thinking about Mario when I made this card, which is why it says "thinking of you". RIP dear brother!! We love you!!
The supplies I used are :
Woodgrain Neutral paper pack
Anchor Stamp and cut Set
Anchor hand punch ( 2 tiny anchors )
Anchor craft ribbon,
Hemp cord
Stitched Circle Die cut
Thanks for stopping by to visit my blog. I hope you like my card.
I also hope you all are doing well and are staying safe.
