  17. I've been seeing all these fabulous patriotic cards on everyone's blogs in the past few days. It's WONDERFUL because it reminds me just how very BLESSED we are to live in the greatest country! God bless the U.S.A. - and let's all pray for our great country to turn it's political eyes back to Him so that we truly WILL be a nation blessed by the LORD.
    Thanks so much for sharing with us again. As I've said before, your art is a blessing to me and to our challenge blog, and I praise God for you and your participation. Please know that I mean that VERY sincerely!
