Veterans Day November 11

November 6, 2013

Hi , its Ava here today to share a very significant date with all of you. November 11 was chosen as the official date
for Veterans Day in reference to the ending of World War I. Families with members who have served in the
military appreciate a day of remembrance that can be share with all of us. We must always remember and demonstrate to
the young the gratitude we have for those that have served in the military.

To-day, I am sharing a couple of cards,
which truly showcase the vibrate red of the poppy in remembrance of

Veterans
Day.

Leading to my completed cards, I have
gathered my supplies of Helmar Decoupage & Craft Paste and Clearsnap Ink along
with my stamps.

The Helmar Zap Dots foam worked well with
this project.

Applying the Helmar Decoupage paste gave
the first layer of my flower a great attachment to my card which had already
had a layer of modelling paste and gesso.

Helmar Decoupage paste was also a great
paste to adhere the seed beeds to the center of the flowers.

I love the red jewel tone of the mulberry
paper.

This side view of the card, shows how well
the Helmar Decoupage paste dries clear and crisp to match the additional petals
of the poppy. The black colored Helmar Zapdots
blend well with this project.
