Wow Brenda, your first card was pretty awesome and so is this one! My DH was a carrier sailor so he'd love this one. Great depth and awesome use of your layout!

LOVE this! My hubby was a Navy guy. Finished before we ever met, but I am so proud of his service. Go Navy!

I love this this tribute to your Dad, Brenda, we all owe a lot to his generation for their faithful and heroic service! Fabulous patriotic colours, and details with the starry panels and the striped panels - love the die-cut oval framed in red, it sets the image off beautifully. Thanks for sharing so meaningfully in this challenge!

This is so cool! Looks like the ship is coming right at us. Where would we all be if it were not for men like your Dad - we're all proud of him and the sacrifices he made.

Wow, Brenda, this is gorgeous! The carrier looks like it's going to float right out of the card. The design on this is exquisite. I didn't realize your dad was a Pearl Harbor survivor. Wow.

Oh wow Brenda, I hadn't seen this! It is totally awesome. My dad was in the Navy during WWII. Believe it or not, he was in the Cavalry (as in horses) before the war then joined back up in the Navy when the war started.
I love your card!!
