This card has the poppy theme and also a background paper of postcards from other countries, to reflect the fact that the serviceman may have served almost anywhere in the world.
The poppy stamp is an umounted stamp that I got in a grab bag when I first started stamping, about 25 years ago. I coloured them in with Promarkers using very delicate strokes because of the fine detail.
The paper, too, is very old. It's a K&Company one - I think it was called Life's Journey - and is probably around 20 years old. The sentiment is a clear sticker.
I am sharing this with
