Patriotic card using Cardabilities Sketch #63

I can't believe it has been two weeks since my last post - where does the time go?  It has been so busy here that I just haven't realized it until today.  Patrick is now finished with marching band (so sad to see it end, but am so excited about next year) and we are trying to get back into an afternoon routine, which is a little more difficult with a 13 year old :)  My mother in law suffered a stroke last week so we have been worried about her and sleep hasn't come easy this week; but I can report that it wasn't a severe stroke, she is doing well and even got up today to do some physical therapy, which is wonderful.  Lastly, my boss is being deployed for six months and tomorrow will be his last day at work until his return.  He was deployed for a year 5 years ago and was so missed, but this time it seems so much harder to watch him leave.  When I looked at my calendar last weekend to see what was going to happen this week, realized that I had a deadline to meet on my design team responsibility so busy I got :)  Monday, November 11th was Veterans Day and it is very special to our family because Jim is a veteran; he served for 4 years in Germany as a military police officer and I couldn't be more proud.  Since my boss is leaving tomorrow, we had a going away get together today for him and his family, so I made a patriotic card for Veterans Day and my boss using Karan's Cardabilities Sketch #63.  I have been enjoying creating with Karan's sketches because each one has allowed me to think outside my box.  This was one of those cards, but I believe it turned out pretty good.  I do hope you will grab this sketch and have fun creating something wonderful.

 

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and I have so much more to post, but for now, I'm going to head out for a while.
