Hi Marie, I really like that Thanks sentiment. So pretty!
I've seen this sentiment before and it really makes a statement with those beautiful flourished fonts! NJ! Happy Memorial Day weekend!

What a beautiful tribute to the military in your family - please thank them from me for their service to our amazing country. The sentiment is absolutely gorgeous with all of its flourishes, and I like how you continued the theme of the stars with stars in the corners of the sentiment piece. Thank you for sharing this and for your support of our heroes and OWH.

The yellow stripe helps the yellow in the patterned paper "pop". That "thanks" stamp is so pretty!
