Faith and Freedom ~ 250 Years

How many of you would raise your hand if asked 'Do you purchase the 6" wooden trays of laser cut wooden designs?'  They are always at Hobby Lobby, nine designs and three of each, not only for the holidays but for many events.

I seem to always find a set or two in the clearance section after a holiday or seasonal event.  They are a great buy ~ but only if you use them.  Last week I ran across a box of Patriotic  symbols.  I stopped then and painted a handful of them, determined to make something!

 With time running short, I finally got a few cards made.  One  I'd like to share with you today as we celebrate our Faith and Freedom for 250 years!



Pinterest inspired with the basic design, I added several items to make it my own.  I have plenty of wooden pieces left over for next year! 

Happy Birthday America!  
Count your blessings every day!
