I bought a couple of different patriotic themed napkin sets at the Dollar Tree (of course), and separated the layers so I only use the top layer.  I covered them with glossy Mod Podge with a paint brush (on a silicone mat) and waited for them to dry.  Once dry, I cut the napkins in quarters and then using a glue stick, adhered it to a 5 1/2" x 5 1/2" pre made white card that I bought at Michaels in a set of 50.  Trim the napkin to fit the card.   I used real red ink  from Stampin' Up and found a line of stars stamp from a set called "Let Freedom Ring" from Papertrey Ink and stamped the card and envelope with the stars.  I had a stamp set from Stampin' Up that's retired called "Courage" and stamped the sentiment from that set inside the card.  
  I am making a patriotic card once a month on video to send to our troops overseas.  Our local group that sends boxes to the troops is called "Project Support our Troops."  They send 60-70 boxes of candy, coffee, tea, cookies, treats, as well as cards to our service men and women on active duty overseas.  Their address is

They appreciate cards for the troops as well as cards that our troops can send home to their families and friends. Please make sure that the cards you send don't have any glittery or sparkly things on them as they are a safety hazard.  I hope some of you will join me to send cards to the people who are there for all of us.
