Challenge 126 - Lest We Forget - Thinking of You

Many thanks for all your lovely pictures last week and thanks also to my friend Janet for hosting the challenge.
Some of you thought Mr Linky was not working but I did receive all the entries and some can be seen on my favourites blog slide show. Sorry about delay in showing slide show but Mr Blogger does not want to load pictures.

Today is Remembrance /Armistice Day so do please take a minute to think of those lost in all the wars  and all those who are out there fighting right now.
We have lost many brave men and women over the years so today your challenge is to make something that saysTHINKING OF YOU.
You could, of course, incorporate POPPIES into your creation should you wish.
Many crafters are so generous and make cards for 'Help the Heroes' so this could be one of the cards you send to them.
As usual you may create whatever you fancy be it atc, card, scrapbook layout, tag, inchie, 4 x 4 - the choice is yours. As always add your creation to your blog or email me direct with the picture if you don't have a blog. Leave me a comment with a direct link to your work of art and I will pop over to have a look. Please include a link to my challenge site on your blog. Thanks and enjoy the challenge.
My card is a work in progress at present but will post it later in the day.

It is for my next door neighbour who sadly lost his Dad last weekend.

This was a great challenge. Not only is it timely and appropriate, it also gave me a chance to use one of my watercolors from a while back.
