Here's my Tuesday posting for Sunshine's Stamps. I went with one of their Sentiments this time. This is the Flanders Fields poem, which I'm sure you are all familiar with. I made this card for my grandfather who served in World War II for remembrance day. To make this card I used my Nesties, Dew Drops, Close to My Heart ink around the edges and ribbon. I also used this weeks sketch from Midnight Madness.

This is a truly lovely card and your grandfather is sure to cherish it. Being a military kid and wife Remembrance Day is always dear to me...the sacrifices made for our freedom and the country we enjoy today should never be taken for granted. This poem epitomizes that sacrifice. thank you for showcasing the poem so finely here Jenny. :)

Beautiful card and a great tribute to your grandfather.
Great card - I think cards should tell a story or mean something and this one certainly does :-)
Wow what a lovely tribute to veterans everywhere!
I am sure that your grandfather will just love it!

Beautiful, LOVE the sentiment!!
Very beautiful card, I love the sentiment.
I learned something today, I was not aware of the sentiment of the Flanders Field, still trying to wrap my mind around that. The colors are very nice and does remind me of a field - great take on the sketch, I do like the thought of using a sentiment in place of an image. Thanks for so many thought inspiring ideas.
Glad you were able to play at Midnight Madness today, hope you will come and play again.
