This is for today's Inspiration challenge with The Manor as our inspiration site. I'm traveling in the van with my art bag that stays packed for my babysitting days. I took my Inspiration from one of the Pinterest boards, Words, with this quote as my central focus. My husband and I married in his 3rd of 25 years in the Navy. I had this fabulous postage stamp in a handful that I threw into my bag. There were a few large ziploc bags of cut envelopes with postage stamps in the free bin at my local.thrift store the other day and I grabbed them specifically for collages. The Navy wives had another saying, "home is where the Navy sends you." At any rate, miltary life with the unknown moving teaches you to focus on relationships rather than locale. Anyway....this collage is for my husband of almost 37 years. I love the homes we have made together over these years.

Super collage and sweet post about you and your husband. I am sure you made a great Navy wife.

Aww! This is so touching! What a sweet collage. So very true that home is a person rather than a place. That stamp is gorgeous! I love everything about this!

This is quite interesting and I love the story behind it. Beautiful card. My SIL is a retired Army wife of 25 years. I never asked her how many places they've lived.
