So this makes me think of our wonderful country, I found this poem and had to post it with this week’s inspiration.
Home of the Brave
by Roger Robicheau
| Through the feel of war they brave this day How proud they stand, their unselfish way Our soldiers bear what we cannot see Each trained will face an unknown fate Just imagine how this land would be All the liberties we have grown to know Find a thankfulness within your mind Have the willingness to show you care Reach out to God with his guiding light America raise your flags to wave
Here is the photo for our inspiration# 50.
Here’s the card I made, dedicated to the 4th of July!! ![]() Land of the Free, Home of the Brave.

another fun little card for the lil’ birthday girl in your life!!
Here’s a fun little twist on your paper bags. I used a retired stampin’ up wheel, then ran certain little pcs of clothin’ over several different types of cardstock, to make them POP out on the line !!! The tag was cut by the Big Shot die cutting machine. And the stamp set used on it is the current Illuminations set!!

baby clothes line !
Here’s another baby card that I had made for my cousin Kristen, who is on her way to becoming a wonderful mommy!!

So glad we're friends...
