Today's freebie came about as I was looking for Christmas Ornaments and I discovered a very cute military snowman and thought he would have been perfect for my husband but being Canadian, we wear berets and not caps/hats. I wanted to do something for Sean since he is away on tour and to celebrate my son Robert's Graduation from Basic Training and so I contacted the one person that I thought could help bring my snowman vision to a reality. Deb at the Scrappin Cop made me a wonderful template from the ornament picture I sent her. From there I created Sean Snowman and Robert Snowman. (Sean is Military Police and Robert is Infantry) If you like the templates please visit Deb's blog at the Scrappin Cop as she has both snowmen templates available today as freebies as well.
Other help came from Joanne at Joanne's Digital Designz. I knew that I would find the perfect Christmas Scripts to create Christmas themed Support Our Troops Items. Holidays are so important and I'm fortunate that Sean will be back from his tour in time to celebrate Christmas with us while some other wife, mother, husband, father, brother, sister or child has to do without their family member this year. I wanted to make sure they had a way to show their support of their family during the holidays.
I've separated the files to download as quickly as possible also, there are Canadian and American verions of the elements as well as the just yellow elements. If you use this kit, I'd love to see your layouts, feel free to send me a link to your gallery or blog. Please enjoy and I hope and pray that if you have a loved one serving somewhere in the world that they return home safely to you. I'll be back tomorrow with my Princess Letter's G and I have already created the element kit for that series, I think your going to love it!

Offering prayers for your family and thanks for your sacrifices. This kit is a wonderful tribute, thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThis is wonderful. Welldone on this tribute kit. It has a lot of American/Canadian sspecific symbols (expected) so I don't know if I'll be downloading or not. I'll have a think - probably still an amount of suitable stuff for UK/Europe troops.
ReplyDeletep.s. I followed a link here from the Scrappin Cop.
Wonderful wonderful kit! Thank you very much!!
ReplyDeleteThe Scrappin' Cop said that the snowman was your idea - thank you for that and for this wonderful military kit! Special thanks to you and your family for your sacrifice - every person who is (or was) in the military has many more at home supporting them. We thank them and you for the freedom we enjoy today and in the future.

ReplyDeleteThank you for such a wonderful kit. My son is at Ft. Bliss, Texas, and will leave for his second tour of Iraq the first week of December, so we will not have him at Christmastime. God bless your family and keep them safe.

ReplyDeleteMy husband and son are both overseas right now and just started their tours. But I am actually comforted that they are close. I will be using your kit to make some ornaments for their tree over there and remembrance trees over here. :)
thank you for sharing this.. is cute.
ReplyDeletemy son is in the Air Force... THANK YOU so much for sharing this kit! I will be using it! And I'm glad I saw it mentioned on SCRAPPIN COPS site!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great web log. I spend hours on the net reading blogs, about tons of various subjects. I have to first of all give praise to whoever created your theme and second of all to you for writing what i can only describe as an fabulous article. I honestly believe there is a skill to writing articles that only very few posses and honestly you got it. The combining of demonstrative and upper-class content is by all odds super rare with the astronomic amount of blogs on the cyberspace.
