Countryside for Jenny :)

On this card, I used all retiring product.  This was my first time to use Countryside.  Why did I wait so long?  Good Question.  Maybe because I buy too many stamps and can't possibly use them all before they retire.  :)  I made this card for my granddaughter, Jenny's birthday.  She loved it.  She's a little bit country at heart.  :)

Remember our Military on Memorial Day

Thank you for your service, and for keeping us safe. I'm so proud that my husband, Joe DiScipio, and brother, Bob Maurer, are inactive Marines.    My brothers, Rich Maurer, and Marty Maurer were in the Army. My Dad, Richard Maurer, was in the Army Air Corp during WW2 and my Mom was in the Navy. To all service members, Thank You! You should be very proud you served your country!!!

With gratitude, we remember. God Bless the families of our fallen heroes - we cannot possibly thank you enough!

Have a great day!   Judy  :)
