After a trip to Maryland & D.C. visiting my sister and her family, I had a million pictures to scrapbook. I decided to keep the majority of them in the original 4" X 6" format to limit cropping and speed my scrapping. These layouts are from a very memorial and moving visit to the War Memorials.
.JPG)
The first photo is of the WW II Memorial. My friend Julie used the computer there to look up her Grandfather's name (he served in that war). A useful photo tip I love to use is to use a photo as a brochure holder. Just back the photo with cardstock and adhere the sides and bottom. Now you can still access the brochure without taking up valuable photo space. .JPG)
The Field of Stars...The Freedom Wall has a reflecting pool just below. The 4,000 Gold Stars honors more than 400,000 lives lost during the World War II. So moving when you see all those stars. .JPG)
The Korean War Memorial was by far the most touching for me because you could actually see the faces of the soldiers. I can not explain the emotions that you feel when you walk around this memorial. I would highly recommend it. Since working on my family tree and knowing my family has been in these wars, I am even more proud of every soldier and every family that has someone serving our country. .JPG)
The Vietnam Wall Memorial was so incredibly long and just filled with name after name. To add some interest to the photo we all posed for the picture and I took the photo of our reflection in the wall like we were giving all the soldiers a big hug. .JPG)
Four American eagles hold a suspended laurel wreath in the Baldaccino Sculpture.
I was so moved by all that I saw that I wanted to do something for our soldiers so I started making cards, they use these cards to keep in touch with their family and friends. The project is called Operation Write Home. You can learn more about it by watching this great video by Operation Write Home. http://operationwritehome.org/
I hope you've enjoyed my project. Now it is time to hop on to the next blog on your list...

lavenderangel@centurytel.net
What wonderful layouts. Thank you for showing support for the military!!

Thank You so much for showing our military men and women such support. They SO deserve it for all they do for us.
Very beautiful. I would like to share a project I stich for here http://omascrafts.com/photo_2.html
Hi,
Thanks for sharing your awesome pages! And for doing the blog hop! This is my first, but looking forward to checking them all out and learning something new!
Thanks again,
LaDonna
As usual, I love your blog, and you have given me some great ideas what to do with the pictures I took last weekend. Our youngest son is being shipped out to Afghanistan at the end of the month. He got to come home for 10 days, and the Patriotic Riders gave him a wonderful send off. The ceremony was held just for him, and there were so many tears from the 14 family members in attendance as well as several friends. They held a lovely luncheon for him afterward. I look forward to working on these layouts, but I know many more tears are sure to come while I am doing them. Thanks for sharing your inspiring layouts!

I have been a fan of your blog for some time and am now a follower! This is my first blog hop! I am super excited to check out all the blogs! Thank you for the glorious pictures of the war memorials in DC. I took my youngest daughter to DC two years ago (she was 16 at the time), it was an incredible experience to share with her!
People ask do you remember where you were when 911 happened? I was watching the tv coverage and as were others in a hospital waiting room. I had to go into the MRI for 1 hr and when I was done I refused to get off the stretcher. I told them I NEEDED to know right now if I was ok. Oddly enough the radiologist came to the room and read my MRI right infront of me and showed me the actual results. 2 yrs after my 10 hr surgery and 10 yrs after my battle begun, my brain tumour was completely gone with no regrowth. I was elated yet when I left the MRI suite I was bombarded with the news and imagines of the twin towers. I called family in the States to make sure they were ok. My neice who is older than me was trying to get across the border to Canada with her kids but everything was shut down. Oddly enough, i could not face anyone that morning. I went to a park along the Thames River and sat on a picnic bench under a canopy of trees for several hrs completely shocked. How could I feel so elated when the world was in chaos. It was like I was having a case of surviours guilt....it was such a stunningly beautiful late summer day.
My heart goes out to all the families and friends of those who died on 9/11 and to all the soldiers, US and Canadian who've died and are still fighting for us.
Although I don't know the name of the nurse that was attempting rescue at ground zero and died from falling debries.I will not forget my fellow nurse's bravery.
Hi Christie, Thank you for sharing your work with all of us. I have never been a part of a blog hop before I am looking forward to it and learning from so many talented people . Thanks for the opportunity.Let us all remember 911 victims.
On 9/11/2001 we looked at the security of our nation through different eyes. As United States of America citizens, we were once again united as One Nation under God. We owe our security to the many brave men and women who have not onlly risked their lives but laid down their lives for us! May we always continue to support our military men and women!
You have made some very beautiful and moving layouts Christie. Even though I wasn't affected by 9/11 I remember sitting up all night with hubby watching it all unfold in tears. Thank you.
Beautiful layouts!
Great LOs! Okay, now this is my favorite blog! I participate in OWH challenges and love making cards for our heros! TFS
My dear friend lost her only child on 9/11. She raised Craig as a single mother and had followed him from CA to the East Coast when he landed his dream job at the Trade Center. For Craig, for Lauri, for every person in this wonderful United States who was impacted by 9/11 - GOOOOOOOOO military!
Your layouts are very impressive! This is a great way to conitnue remembering 9/11.

What an excellent way to remember, and commemorate this tragic day. I particularly liked your picture in front of the wall. Thank you also for posting the video on Operation Write Home. TFS.
Christie- Thank you for sharing all those photos. Lovely layouts.
I remember the first time I saw the Vietnam Memorial. It took my breath away, and then the tears came. The same thing happened to me at the American cemetery in The Netherlands. All those lives lost in WWII honored in such a beautiful way.
Recently found your blog and have been following you regularly. LOVE IT!
Great layouts. Thanks for the ideas. I still need to scrapbook my daughter's trip to Washington DC.

I appreciate this blog hop in honor of 9/11 and our military. My son is in the Army & has been deployed to Iraq/Afghanistan 3 times. My grandson is in the USAF, currently in Afghanistan & had deployed twice prior to this deployment.
What a wonderful way to remember the heroe's of 9/11 and of our military. Thank you. Great layouts!!
On 9/11 I was a junior in highschool in my medical class so I could become a nurse. I will never forget the moment they turned the tvs on. My husband is in the Navy and has been for the last 9 years. I am so proud of him and all the other military for doing what they do to protect us.

Christie, although I read your blog regularly, I just figured out how to follow it! I have a blogger account, but no blog yet...I'm too intimidated...lol...one of these days I'll sit down and figure it out!
Your layouts are wonderful. A trip to D.C. has been on my traveling wish list for a long time, but I haven't made it there, yet. Your photos make me want to visit that much more.
Please remember to keep all of our Public Safety Services personnel (EMS, Firefighters and Police) in your thoughts and prayers also. They truly gave SO much on 9/11 and the months that followed. And for everyone who has someone serving in our armed forces...THANK YOU!
love all your layouts! What a inspiring ideas! I'm already your follower

What beautiful layouts!!! Such a tribute to that time in our lives. I remember I was pregnant with my third child...it was my first day home from work (I had been put on bed rest). I was watching the morning news when they broke in with the story. I was glued to the TV all day with tears running down my face.

We had 5 in our RV and were gone for 4 days! The founder of Honor FLight (who is from my home town; Enon, Ohio; came along with us! We had 8 RVs and what an AMAZING time. Listening to their stories, getting to know them was truely an honor! Honor Flight gave them each a disposable camera. I took mine also and made a scrap book for each of the guys that we took!

Great layouts. I love the tip about adding a brochure in a pocket made from a photo. And with the military theme in mind, I'm going to give DH an extra hug for being a Desert Storm veteran.
Great Blog hop and a great way to remember. Thanks
I love your layouts that you made. So inspiring. I've been to DC and seen the Korean memorial and I felt the same way when I saw....speechless. My husband just recently deployed and knowing that there are so many people out there who still care about our soldiers means alot!! I am following your blog and thanks for participating in the blog hop
The wonderful layouts help to tell a story that you can be proud to relate. We have endured so much in 9 years!! Continue with your creative talent!!
As a military family, we are always moved by the memorials in Washington DC. Thanks for letting us relive them through your layouts.

Amazing layout. So touching to see such reminders of what price was paid for our liberties.
Your scrapbook is beautiful and very well done. They seem to say so much more when the you have deep feelings or respect for the subject matter. Great job!
Lovely layouts! I have saved all of my stuff from 9/11 and my pics of ground zero, but haven't been able to make a layout yet. This helps!

Thanks for your beautiful book. What a great trip that must have been. I have been to see the memorial in Oahu. It is the most humbling place I've ever been. To see all the names of the people who lost their lives in the attack on Pearl Harbor. Then the Viet Nam memorial too. I haven't seen the Korean memorial. It wasn't finished the last time I was in DC. Thanks for sharing your experience with us.

Thanks for hosting -- your layouts are so inspirational.
Thank you for sharing your LO with us. The Korean War Memorial was especially moving for me, when I saw in back in 2002 (on our honeymoon to D.C. and N.Y. in honor of 9/11). When we happened to move to VA in 2008 the AF Memorial was new to us. It's quite the sight with the Pentagon behind it.
Your stuff is always amazing. Thank you for sharing. The patriotic stuff is alway a rush for me. I am so thankful for our HEROS. gdobberteen@yahoo.com
Great LO's. have become a follower. TFS.
Love your LOs. My parents took my brothers and me out there about 9 years ago, and as a history major I love walking through all of the memorials. We were in NYC July before the attack and without knowing we were doing it, had the towers in the background of almost all of our pictures. It was eerie seeing it since we didn't develop the pictures until November.

I love your blog! I am a follower. Thank you for the chance to win such an awesome blog candy! My heart goes out to all the families of the 9/11 victims.

Wonderful scrapbook pages. I was truly overwhelmed by the VietNam memorial wall--so much I could NOT stop crying and I still get emotional thinking of it.

Thanks Christie for all your support to the Cricut world and helping us to learn more and more everyday. Thank you for your support of the military also. I have a nephew in the Air Force and my dad served in WWII and the Korean War. He has gone on to be with God, but he served proudly.
