Days gone by



Hello lovelies, hope you are well! Today I am sharing a vintage card that I have created. November 11th Veterans day in the U.S and Armistice day, here in the U.K honours the sacrifices that were made during past wars. I wanted to pay my respects to all the men and women who were lost to war and to those who still fight every day to protect our country. We remember them and thank them for their services. 










To create my card, I have used a variety of papers, including my own tea dyed paper and this wonderful photo of a young soldier. 
Thank you so much for stopping by, hugs 




I would like to enter this into the following challenges:

  3. This is such a wonderful mixed media card and a perfect tribute for Veteran's Day! I love the sepia-toned color palette - it works perfectly with the vintage image and paper selections! Very nice project!
