SoSS #97 - R is for Remember

Thanks for stopping by today to check out the latest challenge from Edna and the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers!

Today, fittingly enough for November 11, R is for Remember.

To me that meant Remembrance Day.

My son is an Army Cadet and will be standing vigil at one of our local cenotaphs overnight.

Tomorrow we will attend Remembrance Day ceremonies locally with our Cadet Corps and members of the Military from our community.

For me, the #rememberthenow, is a sense of gratitude for the men and women who serve and have served in our military, for their families and the privilege and blessing I feel to live where I do.

Shite I used to make this card:

• White cardstock (Fireworx)
• Black cardstock (Recollections)
• Poppy 
• 1/2" circle punch (SU)
• Hashtags stamp set (Tim Holtz)
• Fishtail & Banner die set (Your Next Stamp)
• Tuxedo Black ink (Memento)
