Stars and Stamps sketch #27

Here is this week's sketch challenge from OWH's Stars and Stamps blog. I happen to think it is a particularly nice one ;-D Thanks Karen!
It just so happens I have a card ready made for this sketch. The Uncle Sam image is in the public domain and I added the sentiment in PSE. That fun ribbon I have had for years. It gets pulled out for patriotic holidays and thank you cards for our troops. The star embossing folder was a treat I bought myself when I could no longer resist it, lol.
You can see a couple more of my cards made with this sketch here-

LOVE this card. Such a perfect hero card.

Great card! Perfect for an any hero note... and the ribbon is fantastic! I always get stumped when trying to use wide ribbon. It's difficult to do without added major bulkiness. This is perfect!

Love your vivid and patriotic card. I'm craving that Stars embossing folder...

You did a great job with the sketch this week, and this card is fabulous! I love how you added the sentiment in PSE (I'm seriously challenged with that software) and the ribbon is perfect for this card!

Thanks Martha for this weeks sketch. I finally jumped in on this sketch and it was tons of fun.
I would like to know which public domain you found the Uncle Sam. I have search to no avail for good images.
