SO HAPPY!! And, Proud!

Our youngest son, who is in the Air Force Reserves, is pinning on another stripe, September 1! He will be a Technical Sergeant, an E-6. This is quite an accomplishment, since he has only had 8 years with the Air Force. Most candidates for this promotion don't make it until their 10th-12th years.
I was excited to make him a very special card. I found some Air Force graphics online, and printed them out. They were the catalyst for the card to come together. This graphic almost looked like metal. You can't tell here, but, another insignia was also cut out and popped up onto the bottom layer.  It looked VERY nice and professional, if I do say so myself! hehehe

This is the first time that I've made one of these inside pop-up cards. It's not perfect, but, it works. I have 2 of the graphics together, one popped up onto the bottom. It looked very nice.
And, here is the finished inside. JTB are his intials, but, we have a special saying with them, and, he will know what they mean.
He may think it's all hokey, until he finds the $100 check I slipped in!
He is in Northern California, too far from home, but, he can go do some celebrating with the money.
He makes us SO SO proud!!!
Thanks for your visit!
