Remembrance Day Thank You

It's getting to the time here in Australia and
other parts of the world to remember those brave soldiers
that have gone to War (past and present) to fight for
Our Country.  

   
It is at this time (and our Anzac Day)
that I think of an old friend who's husband
served in Vietnam and this card is in
remembrance of him.
*** 
Our latest Challenge over at Crafty Cardmakers
is to make a Thank You card.

 
I always like to make a poppy card this time of the year
so this challenge was so timely.
Julie is Hostess for this one.
