#42 World Freedom Day occasion with heart/love theme DT inspiration projects:

DT member Willa Jean=

[#41 required elements: for military appreciation= stars and stripes, red, white, and blue colors for USA; hero; for heart/love = handwritten 'love' and 3 stamped hearts]

Isn't this patriotic?!!! Willa's husband is a USA veteran. Thank you Barry for your time, commitment, and sacrifice!

and

Owner/DT member Becca=

[#41 required elements: Part A= handwritten expression "to military veteran"; hero stamp; also appreciated & giving thanks plus stars ; Part B = 3 different hearts used ]

My high school's mascot of 'Raider' was based on a Northern Civil War raider and not a pirate or other type that sports teams have used. Our school colors were bold yellow and a mid-dark royal blue. With only 35 reaching graduation day in our class, I think there were 6 that spent time in the Army. Thanks guys! (Alan, Dean, Robbie, Shane, Rick, and Chris) I hope I didn't leave anyone out. 

AND

2nd card from Owner/DT Becca

[#42 required elements: Part A= USA/red, white, & blue plus stars & stripes ; Part B = white with little red hearts shape sticker]
