I kept it pretty simple, more so than I usually do, but My DH has always advised me that when it comes to cards for Guys, less is more.. lol 8-) And even though I still feel like I need to add something more to this card, He absolutely Loved it.. So as long as it made his day, I am a happy camper! lol 8-)
For my Hubby's card I dug out my Verve American Hero set and stamped my sentiment focal panel with Memento Tuxedo Black. I cut it out with the help of my Classic Squares Nesties set and added a touch of shading with Antique Linen Distress ink while the die was still in place, colored in the stars with a gold metallic gel pen, ( It actually looks more like gold IRL..lol.) and popped it up with a bit of foam tape. My mats and BG layers were created with kraft CS from my stash and some Fun Patriotic dp's from K&Co's Americana Stack. And to finish it all up, I added some hemp twine and a Marine appropriate dimensional sticker from K& Co. Pretty easy peasy, huh?... 8-)

Wonderful job. I love the sentiment and the understated patriotic theme. TFS, and thanks to your DH and all the dedicated men and women who serve our country.
