"Waving" Hello

Happy Thursday!

It has been an outstanding day.  The weather is HOT as is expected in July in Texas.  There is a slight breeze although it is a bit humid these days.  It is just a wonderful summer day. 

What a shock we have had with the attack on two military facilities in Tennessee.  If you are a praying person, please be in prayer for the families and friends of the fallen and injured and the surrounding areas there in Tennessee.  This is yet another eye-opener for America. 

This design has been ‘floating’ around in my mind for the last three days.  I played with the ‘water’, the ‘rays of sunshine’ and more.  The flag many times; first it was too big, then too small and now I think it works quite nicely.


Here are the details:
Stamp sets:  Perfect Pennants and Work of Art (I love this set)
Card stock:  Soft Sky, All Abloom and Stacked with Love DSP stacks (retired)
Ink:  Baked Brown Sugar (retired), Daffodil Delight, Real Red and Tempting Turquoise
