Hi all,
Today is the World Card Making Day Bloghop with Operation Write Home.
Bloghop theme: Make thank you cards based on one of our OWH sketches.
I choose bonus sketch #5 for my card. I used Recollections paper from Michaels,My Cricut Expression and the Cricut Paisley cart for the scallop border, Spellbinders die, My Creative TIme button die, Cuttlebug . Studio G sentiment stamp and some raffia for the ribbon.
I hope everyone is enjoying the hop!!
Hi,
I made this Artiste Swing Birthday Card for my sister who is turning 60 tomorrow. I used the Close to My Heart Artiste Cartridge for all the cuts including the number 60 and sentiment inside. I am entering this card in the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Create a project using at least one Cricut cut letter or number.
Sorry if the pics are not the best. The colors are so pretty in person.
Hi all,,
Today I made a card for the CARDZ Challenge#35 Celebrate the Harvest. I used an image from KaDoodle Bug Designs, my silhouette cameo print and cut feature and the Martha Stewart fence punch. The paper is from my stash. I also used the pinking embossing folder and my cuttlebug. I am adding this A2 size card to my box of cards for Operation Write Home.
Operation Write Home is taking part in the World Card Making Day BlogHop. You can get all the information by going to their blog page.

Hi,
T
oday starts a free card class provided by Operation Write Home. Please check it out.
The challenge on this stop is to make a kiddie card using the tic-tac-toe board
shown below. I choose to go down the center row for my card. This was a lot of fun to make. The sheep is from the silhouette store. The fence is a Martha Stewart punch. It originally had little bats on the posts but I clipped them off so it wouldn’t be just for Halloween. Thank you Scrapping with Purpose for a great challenge.

Hi,
I made this fall card for Operation Write Home VCMP challenge #7. We were to make a card with a fall theme with an I Love You, Miss You or Thinking About You sentiment. I actually made two versions with different papers. The papers were from a pad I bought last year at Michaels. I used the cut and print feature on my silhouette for the cute little bear from KaDoodle Bug Designs. I embossed using the pinking folder from Cuttlebug. I plan on making a few of these to add to my box of cards for OWH.
Hi all,
I can’t believe my daughter celebrated her 5th wedding anniversary already. So much has happened in the last 5 years. All good though. She now has two children and a new job she enjoys.
Here is a card I made for her using my silhouette cameo and a step card from their on-line store.
The paper is from a wedding pack I purchased at Michaels.
Hi all,
I know I have been away from this blog for a while but I have had a lot happen. I had another grandchild born which was such a blessing. I spent a lot of time with my daughter after the birth. I also had surgery to remove my gall bladder. I am feeling so much better now. Needless to say I have been itching to get back into my craft room.
Operation Write Home put up another challenge this week. They are challenging us to use something on our card three times, an embellishment, stamped image etc. for our heroes to send home to their family and friends!
I made this thank you card using my silhouette. The flower-pot and sentiment were from their on-line store. I used paper from my stash and flowers from Michael’s. I love the colors.
Please keep the people in Oklahoma in your thoughts. They need all the prayers and help we can give.
I hope you all have a great week and enjoy this Memorial Day Weekend.
Hi,
I know it has been awhile since my last post. I have a new grandson and have been helping my daughter. I have been fortunate to have two new grandbabies born. One in December and one end of February. The joy they bring is beyond measure.
I made this card for Operation Write Home and Dynamic Duo and their color challenge for this week. We were challenged to make a card using blue and green. The card is 4.25 by 5.5. I used my cameo and the print and cut feature. The little bird is from the silhouette on line store. The blue background paper is from DCWV.
