My Hero Veteran's Day Tag

Created this Clean & Simple Veteran's Day Tag using Stand & Salute Cricut cartridge that I had not used in awhile for my hubby who served in the Air Force during the Vietnam War. Even though the Tag is CAS there is nothing CAS about the freedom that we have because of those that have served & are serving in the United States Military.
