A SALT challenge and a Lotta Love for our Troops !






Well, I had been thinking of the theme for this month's SALT blog challenge,and it talked about our hearts being where our treasure is , Jesus said "lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven , where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through and steal" So I had been trying to think of ways to make my stamping more profitable in an heavenly sense when I saw Allison at stamping when I can post a challenge to make cards for our troops. The site is called cardsforheroes.org and they are sponsoring a challenge called with love from the home front. So I invited our church ladies to help me. I was so pleased with their willingness to participate, many were beginners or had never stamped ! Nancy (the pretty one in the green shirt!) from Inkcicles helped me get them all started and they turned out some great cards ! I pray that these cards will help convey our love for our soldiers. God Bless the U.S.A. !

These are terrific, my nephew was in Iraq for 15 months and he so enjoyed receiving letters from home. Can i find out where to get the soldier stamp, both my nephew and niece are in the army and i would love to get this stamp to create some items for them.

Thanks so much and all of your items are wonderful.
