This is for challenge #6 in the holiday CAS card challenge-to be inspired by a national or state flag. I drew my inspiration from Japan's flag. I get frustrated that we don't seem to be doing enough for this country who suffered so greatly in the earthquake and Tsunami several months ago.
Hopefully this card will help people remember and pray for the people effected by this disaster.

What a totally cool idea, Emily!!!! DH bought a cycling jersey for Japan (proceeds went to a recovery effort), and this reminds me so much of his jersey! Brilliant!

Great card and a great cause! And thanks Susan for mentioning the cycling jersey. My husband is a cyclist also. His birthday is coming up and that would make a great birthday gift.

Thank you. DS #3 has been living there for a year now (the other side of the main island) and he says that the country is still reeling. This card is a fabulous way to remind us all to keep the Japanese people in our thoughts, prayers and actions.
