I appreciate

Hi everyone. I know I'm not around much these days. I'm still having eye troubles. Tomorrow is my last surgery and in two weeks I'll be seeing better than ever. I can't wait. First thing I want to do is drive to my daughter's house and visit with her and the kids. It's been so long since I could see well enough to drive. Enough about me and eyes. It's time to play.
I'm playing along with The Friday Mash Up today.


 Lisa wants us to make a Patriotic Card using Poppy Parade, Daffodil Delight, Whisper White, and Night of Navy.
Here is the card I created


The stamps I used were
       From Stampin Up  Stars and Swirls
       The sentiment is from The Angel Company
       The stars and stripes background is a stamp I picked up at a yard sale. I only paid $0. 50 for it. I have no ideal who's the maker.
I hope you like my card. Be sure to stop back again.

Great card Karen, I love the wave of the flag and the sentiment looks great!

So sorry to hear you are still having eye issues. Hope your next surgery gets you up and moving ASAP! I know I sure do miss your posts!

Glad you were able to play along with this challenge!
