Let Freedom Wave: A Patriotic Banner

My 2025 Memorial Day began with the opportunity to sing with the Hurricane Valley Choir at a program at the Hurricane, Utah cemetery honoring those who gave the ultimate sacrifice, as well as those who still serve in the U.S. Military today. That got me thinking about the freedoms I enjoy today because of people who laid down their lives in many ways.

I love the United States of America and what the Founding Fathers intended it to be. I believe it is a land blessed by God, but to have His protection, we must follow Him. There are things I’m concerned about (and have been for many years) and I’m choosing to remember those who fought for freedom – on a battle field or in a home.

Which brings me to the paper craft I demonstrated in my live video: A banner for freedom! We start with Memorial Day at the end of May, proudly wave our country’s flag on June 14th for Flag Day and celebrate our Independence Day on July 4th…so this craft using the Party Banner Dies, Pretty Florals Bundle and Mini Alphabet dies was created in time for a multi-seasonal decoration.

It now hangs proudly on my front door:

As mentioned in my video, the best shopping deal for stampers ANYTIME is the Starter Kit, which normally includes $125 in product that YOU CAN CHOOSE, plus supplies to run your business (catalogs, etc), a free Paper Pumpkin Kit AND free shipping…all for $99!

Currently we have a special offer – for just a few more days – which allows you to choose and extra $40 in your kit! There are no requirements to this opportunity: Only a chance to see if a creative business (or get a discount on the products you are already using) is something you’d enjoy exploring.

Serendipitously, the Party Dies Bundle is $125 for both the Banners and the large Alphabet – adding them to your starter kit would be a terrific way to save on these incredible crafting tools! Once you join Stampin’ Up!, you’ll also be able to save 20% (or more) on future purchases, and connect with a community of crafters that you didn’t know how much you needed.

If shopping with a demonstrator is more your style, I’m delighted to serve you! Here are the supplies I used for the Patriotic Banner, and you can click on any to add to your order:
