Veteran's Thank You Cards Reminder

 It's May already and that means that you are running out of time if you still plan to get me your Veteran's Thank You cards. But I know that life happens, so if you are not able to get me your cards by June 1st, I can save them until next year.

For your inspiration, here are cards that I received from Lisa Susa:

And from Linda Jachmistal:

And from Lorraine McNemee and her granddaughter:

As you can see, they are all so beautiful, I thank everyone that contributed to this great cause. I have been in contact with my contact from Badger Girls who will write the messages on the inside for the Honor Flights out of 5 different hubs in Wisconsin, she can't wait to see what we came up with.

If you would like to help, there is still time. Here are the guidelines:

• Red/White/Blue colors (Either in cardstock, design or ink)
• White piece of cardstock on the inside (For messages that they write) We don't write the messages.
• Does not have to be all Stampin' Up!
• Clean and simple is great!
• No Envelopes
• Deadline is June 1, 2026

Thank you so much, everyone has exceeded my expectations and I love you for it!

Cindy
