Prayers for America Card

Good Morning.  Wow, I just happened to glance down and see that it's 4 am.  Holy smokes.  Well, let's get these cards posted.  

 As I was looking through my challenge list for this week, I realized that one of them was Red, White, and Blue.  In light of what has gone on in Boston and Texas this past week, I decided to make a card as a tribute to those who lost their lives and were injured.
Sorry the pic is a little dark, but hopefully you can see all the elements.  This little guy is marching his way across the USA to bring support to those in Boston and Texas.  I used my colored pencils to bring him to life.  After coloring him, I used my Fiskars Oval shape cutter to die cut him.  The card base is Recollections Red and I used it for the mats on the DP also.  All the DP is from DCWV.  I used the shape cutter to cut out the sentiment oval and mat, also.  I hand wrote the sentiment and inked the image and sentiment with DI Vintage Photo.  Adding some red gems from Queen and Co. finished off this prayerful card.  

 Thank you for joining me tonight/this morning.  I hope y'all enjoy your Saturday and God bless America!
