~Nesting Stars – a military Thank You~
February 17th, 2020 by Holly McMillen
My family (including my husband) has a long line of active military and veterans. For a long time now, I’ve wanted to make thank you cards for those deployed.
Over the last couple of months, I’ve added numerous military themed stamp sets and dies. My personal goal is to create 2000 thank you cards before the end of the year.
I don’t normally repeat a card I’ve already made, but in order to reach my goal, I will be doing cards in batches of 25 – 30 of each design. It’s not as simple as it may seem. There are guidelines for what can be on the cards, how they are mailed and such

If I use this card, for instance, I’ll have to lose the pearls and flatten it a bit. I’m actually quite excited about the challenge.
