I have a friend who needed a card to give a co-worker who has a son leaving for Marine Corps Boot Camp on the 7th of July. It is their only child. The Dad was a Marine too, so they know how hard Boot Camp is...and she's gonna miss her "baby"!
I paper pieced the uniform and then did it again with the pockets, sleeve rolls, and main body of his cover (hat to civilans!)...popping all those extra bits up.

Great card, and an important moment to their family. The young men I've known who have gone through boot camp REALLY appreciate the mail while they're there too.
