Operation Write Home

Sketch Challenge #80

Hello OWH Friends! and welcome to my crafty space. I'm excited to share with you my sample card for this weeks Operation Write Home sketch challenge. 

Here is this weeks OWH Sketch!

I hope you play along by making a card and then stop by and post your project on the Stars and Stamps blog!

My Sample card!

When I was asked to create a card using the following sketch I knew immediately that I wanted to use my Cuttlebug. I had just received my new toy and Loved the way it added texture and dimension to my projects. Since making this card I have used my cuttlebug on several projects and am so glad I made the investment!!!

Card Recipe:

Paper: DCWV textured cardstock, 

Vellum and Designer paper

Technique: Dry Embossing with my Cuttlebug

Ink: Stampin' Up Chocolate Chip

Embellishments: Got Flowers and Rhinestones

Thank you so much for stopping by and I look forward to seeing everyones cards!

Have a fantastic day ~Yvonne

Spring Bloghop

Operation Write Home

Bunny Hop Bloghop!

Hello Everyone & Welcome to Operation Write Homes' Bunny Hop Bloghop! I'm super excited to be participating and I know you'll have fun along the way.  This isn't the first stop so if you are just joining us you'll want to go back to the beginning at OWH Stars and Stamps Blog because you do not want to miss out on any of the FUN!

If you've arrived here from the very talented Nancy at Scrap Happens, then you are certainly heading in the right direction! I love her bright and Cherry card! :) Oh and I'm jealous that she's at Hobby Lobby today - we don't have them here in California.

For the Bloghop, we were asked to make a Spring card. I took this literally and you can see exactly why in my video. I hope you join us in making Spring themed cards for OWH. The Easter deadline is March 18th with Mother's Day following right behind on March 31st. Please make sure your cards arrive by these deadlines so that they can be mailed promptly to our troops. I also invite you to visit the Hero Blog and read the many entries there from Heroes far away.  They really do appreciate all the love and care put into each card.
