Memorial Day!

Happy Memorial Day weekend!  My kids are off today and Monday so we have a few days of fun!  We will be going to the beach...weather permitting!!! Fingers crossed!
Here is a quick card that I made for the family!
I used Just Because Cards cartridge for the scalloped card base and welded two together to make the base and the front of the card.  I used Independance Day cartridge for the circle with the cut out stars and stripes and placed some blue paper behind it to pop the colors!   I also used Independance Day to cut the title Memorial Day!  I added some twine and a charm that I have had in my stash from the $1 bin at Target!  I kept it super simple and kind of rustic looking!

I hope you all have a wonderful Memorial Day weekend!
Edited to add:  I entered this card in a Memorial Day contest on this blog
