Well...this VSN challenge was to use colors from your favorite place.
I am not terribly outspoken in my love for our country (USA), but I certainly appreciate all the wonderful freedoms and opportunites we have. So...I immediately pick RED and WHITE as my two colors......however....as I thought about it, many of the countries that have a significant place in my heart share these colors in their flags......Poland and Canada....the lands of my ancestors (and both places I have visited).....also my trip of a lifetime was to Japn....which also has red and white as the colors of their flag.......so RED and WHITE it is!!!

Hey, Girlfriend! Congrats on making it to the Honors Gallery. Your cards always blow me away! I like the different patterns (dots, checks) that work so well together!
