Today is Veteran’s Day here in the states. What is Veteran’s Day?
In the USA it is observed annually on November 11, that honors military veterans; that is, persons who served in the United States Armed Forces. It coincides with other holidays, including Armistice Day and Remembrance Day, celebrated in other countries that mark the anniversary of the end of World War I.
Veterans deserved to be celebrated!! Not just celebrated, but scrapped! Here at GingerScraps there is a great amount of digital scrapbooking supplies to scrap the Military folks in your life. There is an entire section dedicated to all things military. With that in mind, I am going to show you some great items from our store that will help you scrap those Veterans in your life! (images are linked to their counterpart in the store.)
Welcome Home Soldier is an amazing collection. This collection is great for photos of your Soldier coming home, 4th of July celebrations, or anything Military or U.S.A themed! This collection can also work for other things as well! Packed full of so many gorgeous papers, elements and more! This collection will not disappoint!
You don’t have to be in the military to know what they do for us. You don’t have to have family in the military to know they protect our way of life. Celebrate American heroes with this fantastic kit that includes all five branches of the US military (Army, Navy, Coast Guard, Marines and Air Force)! It’s also perfect for any kind of all-American fun, patriotic events and so much more! All branches contain both boy and girl characters. The color palette includes red, yellow, greens, blues, browns and white.
Few things are more important then the brave men and women that defend and protect our great nation. This collab is perfect to preserve all the memories of Our Troops.
Celebrate all your American Heroes with this super versatile, military-themed digital scrapbooking collection from Trixie Scraps Designs. Whether you have Army, Air Force, Marine or Navy photos to scrapbook, American Heroes has got it covered! There’s also plenty of red, white and blue, making this kit perfect for Memorial Day, Independence Day, and other patriotic pages, too.
People of the Armed Forces are simply the best, they serve their country with pride. They are brave, loyal, honorable and strong. They make us proud in every way, they are our heroes!
Most of these items shown to day lean towards the American side of the military. I think there is plenty though to scrap the other military members of the family (or yourself!) from other parts of the world. If you don’t find what you are looking for in today’s post, make sure to check out that section mentioned earlier in the post. There is more where this came from!
I would like to close today’s blog post with a “thank you!” Thank you to our active members of the military and our veterans! We know that our way of life is thanks to your sacrifice! I am sure that some of our fellow scrappers here at GingerScraps are veterans. I know a lot of us have family that is serving or has served as well. Thank you all for your sacrifices as well.
Happy Veteran’s Day!
Unless I am mistaken there is one group of service men and women that is always forgotten in the scrapbooking world… it is the National Guard. My brother served and was in during the LA riots long ago. I remember his sleeping area was ‘under the 3rd ping pong table’ though he got little rest. They serve not just in civil unrest but help during natural disasters etc. May God bless them all….Cynthia S.
Oh I agree Cynthia about the National Guard. God bless them all! Thanks for posting your idea here at the blog. You can also suggest kit ideas in the forum’s Suggestion Box.
