American Pride


We always love watching the Olympics!  This year it felt bittersweet with The Games being held in China and with the threat of war in the Ukraine which has since become a reality.   Human rights and personal safety for the athletes were a constant underlying concern. 


It would have been awful to have trained so hard for so long and then not get to compete so diplomatic boycott while still sending our athletes seemed like a satisfactory compromise.  We are so very proud of our US athletes and the 25 medals they brought home from Beijing!  It was especially exciting to have medalists from Florida and from the UP of Michigan!  


I enjoy working with themes and incorporating symbolism into my projects.  My Stamp Simply project for today celebrates the indomitable American spirit along with the Olympic spirit of setting goals that shoot for the stars, staying the course and remaining true to your inner compass!  This Graphic 45 designer paper worked perfectly for this theme and the sentiment inside echoes my continued prayer for the entire world!
